I recently purchased this knife for my birthday. Over the summer I worked in a 4 Star restaurant and got pretty handy with a knife. The knives that are used in restaurants are of great quality and sharpened on a regular basis. After becoming a fan of well-made blades, I decided to buy my own for home. I did a lot of research and finally decided on this J.A Henckels 8" Chef’s knife. One of the reasons I decided on this knife was because I know that they are a favorite of world class chef Gordon Ramsey. I am so glad that I decided on this knife.
The knife comes out of the package extremely sharp. I knew that I would eventually need to re-sharpen the blade, so I bought a sharpener with a fine and coarse setting. I used this knife daily on about everything you could imagine, and it held its edge extremely well. It wasn't until about after a month of constant use that I noticed the edge to dull a little bit. It was at that point that I used my I.Q. kitchen blade sharpener on it. The blade turned out to be as sharp as new. Overall, the blade is extremely well made and holds its edge very well. I would suggest the purchase of a quality blade sharpener so that you can keep your knife in brand new condition.
The handle of the knife is also very well made. It is very well balanced and fits in my hand perfectly. It feels as though the blade is just an extension of your hand, that is how well constructed it is. My girlfriend with much smaller hands than mine also finds that it is extremely comfortable for her to use. I think that the material used on the handle is also very comfortable to hold. It his great grip and is also very easy to clean.
I never put my knife in the dishwasher and that helps maintain sharpness. I clean it with a sponge and dish soap and it cleans very well. It is also rust resistant, so I am able to let it air dry.
This is the perfect knife for someone looking for a quality chef’s knife at a reasonable price. I am extremely happy with my purchase and I will be purchasing a full set in the future.
