YoshihiroKurouchi Black-Forged Blue Steel Stainless Clad Petty Utility Knife Ebony Handle (5.3'' (135mm) & Saya)

I really enjoy this knife. The edge geometry is very even and durable. It does have a surprisingly low angle at the edge. I expected it to be sharper and thinner at the edge. I believe this is somewhat by design and even advertised this way to make it durable because besides that the cutting edge is still exceptionally even, smooth, and concave. The finish where the blade meets the handle could be slightly better. The tang is nice and thick. This knife is amazing overall and I would highly recommend.

This is my second knife from Yoshihiro. I love it. Highly recommend. My only thing is the spine is quite thick.. so thin slicing is not it's forte.

I contacted the seller hoping for a response but no answer. Spending this type of money on a knife I would expect it to be better quality. The knife was used once, washed and dried and put in its sheath and appeared corroded, tried contacting the seller about if it was normal how to clean it why it looked so dirty and got no response. Would not buy again… and it’s pitted, lost its sharpness and discolored within days of purchase.

Beautiful knife, thank you!

Very sharp works great, get the holder with it and you are good to go as a hibachi chef.

You have to take good care of this knife, but it is beautiful and very useful. I use it every day.

love this knife. Feels good in your hand and cuts beautifully
