7 Inch Damascus Fillet Knife, Professional VG-10 Super Steel Japanese Boning Knife, Ultra Sharp Fish Knife with Ergonomic Olive Wood Handle

Very well made, very sharp. Versitile knife style. The wood handle needed some oil, I used lemon oil that I use on guitar fret board. Sharpen with Japanese stones and water, so invest in those and a sink bridge.

This is the sharpest knife I’ve ever owned! Beautiful and fits nicely in my hand.

It presents beautifully in a box. There were plastic edge protectors for safety. It cuts beautifully!

Nice sharp blade, wish it had a little more flex to it. But worked great on a big mess of crappie this weekend!

Beautiful knife! Cut through a cantaloupe like butter

Beautiful paring knife and very sharp. Love it!

Everything in the advertising led me to believe I was purchasing an authentic Japanese knife. The product description includes phrases like “Japanese kitchen knife” and “made of Japanese VG-10 steel,” which strongly implies that the knife itself is made in Japan. The presentation feels misleading. If you're looking specifically for a Japanese-made knife, be aware that this is not one.When the package arrived, I was deeply disappointed to see it clearly marked Made in China. While the steel may (or may not) be of Japanese origin, the knife itself is manufactured elsewhere — an important detail that should have been made clearer upfront.It is sharp! I was easily able to shave off arm hair (like with an old fashioned straight razor) with the knife right out of the package. I will keep it because it is so sharp.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Value for money and the Damascus steel, my favorite. I know how that is made.
