Worth the money

Awesome knife. Made it through 2 Christmas's without the need to sharpen. Don't see the point of a fancy Damascus knife, when this beast will get the job done, without all of the pampering! My 12 year old son loves it too!

Expensive, but worth the money - super sharp, massive knife.

These days it's hard to know whether you are buying quality or a real piece of junk, kitchen knives in particular these days have latched onto the damascus steel look, but very few are the real deal, the patterns being just a surface decoration rather than a genuine atrifact of forged steel. This knife though, is the biz, it feels solid in the hand, has an edge like a honed razor out of the box and is a real pleasure to use in the kitchen. Sometimes you do have to shell out for quality, in this instance you really do get what you paid for.

Maybe a little expensive but you know you have a quality knife for the rest of your life. Well balanced and looks good.

Just brilliant. Love it

El mejor cuchillo sin dudas.

Best of it's class. Well balanced, comfortable grip, great construction, high rockwell hardness in the steel means it keeps an edge well also. Wusthof knives are the standard for a reason. Great knife.

Excellent knife - a lifetime time investment. We now have two of these

High quality, renowned chefs knife. I see why it is beloved by millions of cooks; it just feels nice to use and works very well. Excellent materials and craftsmanship. It came out of the box razor sharp. It will cut through carrots and onions like butter. Feels well balanced, has good size and heft and is very versatile. I use this all day and it cleans easily with just a little soap and water. I have the 8" and now I want the 6" version as well.

Half price because it has a brown handle? I can live with that. Lovely knife
