Used the custom engraving service to make this a present for my GF. She loves it. Actually, we both love it.

Have some IKEA 365 knives, which are great for the price, but suck in comparison.

And we also have a block of Zwilling, which aren't bad, but are way heavier, handle worse, and when cutting, stuff sticks to the knives way more.

This one though - the Tojiro DP Santoku - basically has perfect balance - you automatically grad it the correct way. And it's way lighter. It's not (yet) as sharp as our Zwilling knifes, but I'm very sure that this will come after first sharpening it.

Overall, love it, and now she wants to order a complete set for me as a christmas present as well, because it's so great.

Tips when you order it: I would not take the japanese gift wrapping again, it's just regular paper wrapping with a japanes image, as far as I can tell. Nice for a gift, but pointless if you order it for yourself (or people who don't care about the wrapping). Also, a knife block at 45 deg or similar would be nice.

Still, love it!

A beautiful well balanced knife. It feels light yet sturdy in the hand. My daughter is over the moon with it and I will be back for more purchases. Arrived quickly too.

Bought for my daughter for Christmas (she's a budding chef). It is amazing! Superb quality and will get lots of use. Arrived quickly as well!

Very good standard very quick and it’s very nice

I bought the Tojiro chef knife with engraving as a gift and my bf adored it! Sharp Edge team is wonderful, I will surely buy again from them - from the order to the communication for the engraving to the super-fast delivery, they are true professionals and I couldn't be happier!

he absoluterly loves it.

I had to break down a whole amberjack (kampachi) at work. Cuts through the bones like butter. Took the tail and head off 0 resistance

Superbe manche et virole en corne de buffle blonde .

It is probably the best quality Vg10 money can buy.
Thin, performant blade geometry, good cutting performer, good edge retention.
I highly recommend!

Compaired to Zdp189, this Hap40 is better balanced in steel alloys, and less brittle. Second best edge retention from japanese steels, and also better blade geometry for excelent cutting performance.
It is also verry well priced for this type of steel. I love it
