Fantastic Knife ~ The Best I have used. September 6, 2008 SilverStarWind (San Luis Obispo CA) I have owned good german Wusthof knives ~ an eight inch chef's knfe and a 3 1/2 inch paring knife. They were of substantial heft, served me well and I enjoyed them, though they were not particularly ever super sharp, especially the paring knife. None the less, I enjoyed them. They were stolen when I left them on the patio after preparing some food for the grill. I replaced the Wusthof knives with some Japanese knives that were highly rated by a respected serious culinary magazine. The Japanes knives were sharper than the Wusthofs and were of acceptable to very good quality but were fragile. They were costly too, but less so than the Wusthofs. I have also used other German and French knives of equal repute as the Wusthof line. Why this background? Just to indicate I have used high quality knives, cook often, and have the experience with decent knives to compare to the Forschner knife in question. This Forschner 7-inch Granton Edge Santoku is superior to all my previous knives and 80% less costly than the Wustoff eight inch chef knife I previously owned. It is EXTREMELY SHARP and cuts thin slices of tomato perfectly with no effort whatever. I find it a has more a sense of weight than the Forschner six inch chefs knife in the same line. By the way, that is a great little knife too. But this knife has a satisfying bit more heft for heavier jobs, yet is still light and easy to use. It has a great shape for me, and is angled just right to my cutting block. I love the feel of the fibrox handles they use in this line and this one fits my hand perfectly. I have a moderately sized hand. In my opinion, you cannot find a knife that touches this one for the price. I doubt you will find a better one at five times the price. I would be quite surprised if you found a sharper one. If you want to treat yourself to an excellent, user friendly knife at a very reasonable price, you cannot go wrong with this knife. You will be very pleased you decided to select it. It is a gem. It is simply an excellent kitchen tool you will find excuses too use.
Great knife for the money. September 2, 2008 C. Fazioli (PA) This knife works really well and cuts and slices with ease. I checked out various reviews of knives and this one always came under "good knife for under $50," and that is absolutely the truth. No frills, cuts well, will probably only last about 7-10 years, but that's okay for the value. Very happy with this purchase.
Amazing! August 21, 2008 Rhea M. Vizcarra (RMV) Very sharp. A bit light but then again it is only stamped. Before I purchased this knife, I did some research and found that Forschner knives indeed match the sharpness and longevity of other fancy forged knives. And it seems to show so far. Sure, forged knives are heavy and extremely sharp and strong. But if you cannot afford a $500 piece of knife then you should go for this as a second choice.
Fantastic for the Price August 17, 2008 Linda Blackburn (North Carolina) I read a review of this knife in Cook's Illustrated and decided to buy this product based on that review. I've since bought several by this company and have to say that it is beyond a doubt the best knife I've ever owned. It feels great in my hands and holds a excellent edge. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who spends as much time in the kitchen as I do.
A cut above the rest August 3, 2008 Skinner (Florida) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Based upon dollar value and performance an excellent knife and great addition to any kitchen. Blade is sharp, retains its edge with use, and well balanced regardless of use with your right or left hand. Very pleased with purchase.
