Customer Reviews
I hesitated at first because of the price, but after using the Kanetsune knife, I understand why it’s so highly rated. The quality is top-notch, and it feels like a professional tool. I just wish it came with a protective sheath at this price point.
This knife is gorgeous, and the blade is incredibly sharp, but the handle can get a little slippery when wet. It’s not a huge issue, but something to be aware of if you’re working in a busy kitchen.
