Stelton Pure Black Chef's Knife, large

While this product was fantastic looking out of the box, it only kept its edge for a short while before it needed to be continually honed and then sharpened.

Also, while it looked great to start, after a short while, the black coating starting scaping away. I never use a dishwasher on nice knives and this shouldn't happen from hand washing.

A real shame because I expect Stelton quality to be better.

I have bought and used number of great knives over the years and have some trusty faithfuls and I think this one will be added to that list. It is heavy and well balanced and cuts beautifully (it came fairly sharp out of the box, but after a quick hone is now razor). The black coating looks great, not really sure it serves any particular purpose in terms of grip or cleanability, but hey, it stands out in the rack!

I am so happy with this knife, not only is it sexy as can be (yes, I am a nutcase, I know...) but it's very very sharp. It's comfortable to use, sharp, looks excellent. I use this and it's brother (I have the big and small one) almost daily!
