Chef's knife, part of the Pro S series, is made of high-carbon stainless steel and precision-honed, with a laser-controlled edge, a balanced super-bolster, and a tang that extends to the back of the polypropylene handle, which is permanently bonded for seamless accuracy.

Great Knife for the home cook June 16, 2008
Stefan Stoianov (blacksburg, VA, usa)
I finally decided to get top quality knife, to replace my Chicago Cutlery 8" br /chefs knife (I got tired of sharpening it every other week). br /It was supposed to come 5 days after it shipped, but I got it in two, it came in a nice black box, sharp and ready for work. br /So far I can tell you it is worth every penny, now I can do large volume of work with little effort. Chopping, dicing, slicing etc is easy due to the heftiness and sharpness of the knife. I remember watching a video on YouTube of some guy slicing a piece of paper in very thin horizontal strips with a Shun, well let me tell you that this knife can do the same with ease. br /The handle is very comfortable for me, I have large hands, but it fits perfectly well in them. br /Blade is about 2 " wide, very sharp and can cut through anything with ease, for example I was able to cut onions in almost transparently thin slices. The heftiness helps a lot with cutting and when doing big volume jobs because it saves effort pushing down with the knife. br /Balance is great,when I hold the knife with the pinch grip with two fingers right before the bolster it maintains perfect horizontal position. Size is also good, I didn't really expect it to have a mini-sword like look, but the definitely impresses. br /I find the standard block set sharpening steel to be highly inefficient, so I use Kyocera 9-Inch Ceramic Sharpener. This sharpened hones as well as sharpens the knife and keeps the edge rasor sharp. br /Overall great knife well made and balanced, now I regret I didn't buy this in the first place but went for cheaper brand.
