Zhen Japanese Steel Hollow Ground Chef's Knife 8" + Paring Knife 5"

I got these knives a short while ago, shipping to Hawaii was prompt. I considered buying the Zhen Damascus knife kits but got lazy and decided not to make the handles by myself from hardwood at this point. So I ordered this pair and the matching 10.5" bread knife for the interim. Excellent products for the price (the Zhen Damascus knives are better but more expensive). The knives I got are very sharp, no doubt about it! Tomatoes etc. slice in half so easily. These knives are contemporarily designed by fusing the blade and handle together as one piece which may be a benefit in the long run? Actually I kind of like the look!

The 8" chef knife is so light, well balanced, sharp, and just great to look at, it is now my absolute favorite knife in my collection! The paring knife is also just as great! I greatly look forward to working with it, cutting strawberries, pickles, segmenting grapefruit, it does it all and the hollow ground makes cutting, slicing, and dicing much smoother! I love these knives so much, and so do my coworkers! If anyone is thinking of buying one the 440C knives and is not sure of the difference between the VG-10 and 440C listen, the 440C knives are just softer than the VG-10 knives the means they will get as sharp but the edge won't last as long, witch isn't a bad thing, a few strokes on a good steel and there back in Business!

Light weight one piece construction. Feels nice if a somewhat unsubstantial. Won't replace my Henckel's or Globals, but would be great to throw in a roll and take on vacation.

I got these for Christmas and they are wonderful. The handles may look strange, but they are designed to fit your hand perfectly. They are well balanced for a confident and comfortable grip. I love how there is NO seam from the blade to the handle as food born pathogens can live in those cracks. The ONLY drawback is the "grip strip" design. They are not needed and I worry about the wear and longevity of such a material. Other than that, I love them to pieces!
