Very good for cutting meat and vegetables! Definitely better quality than some similar priced Cuisinart or Masterchef brand knives. Review: Great cheap knife - I came across this knife brand on Reddit in the r/chefknives. Now just know this subreddit is full of ardent Japanese knife collectors and working cooks. So I was surprised to see regular recommendations for this knife brand with glowing reviews. I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the knives given the price. If you are looking to try a different style knife, i.e. bunka or Gyuto but don't want to spend the big bucks on a "real" knife, then these are your next best bet. They get the job done, hold a very fine edge, are easy to sharpen, and did I mention cheap? The handles can be a little rough, but what do you expect for the price? ## Features - Thai Chef knife cookware - Well balanced with double-riveted fine wooden handle - High-quality hardened stainless steel blade - Asian cookware ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0091OPBCS | | Best Sellers Rank | #139,819 in Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Kitchen ) #372 in Chef's Knives | | Blade Color | Silver | | Blade Edge | Plain | | Blade Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Blade edge | Plain | | Blade length | 8 Inches | | Blade material | Stainless Steel | | BladeLength | 8 Inches | | Brand | KIWI | | Brand Name | KIWI | | Color | Brown | | Colour | Brown | | Construction Type | Forged | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 867 Reviews | | Handle Material | Stainless,Stainless Steel,Wooden Handle,Steel | | Handle material | Stainless,Stainless Steel,Wooden Handle,Steel | | Included Components | KIWI Knife 288 | | Is the item dishwasher safe? | No | | Item Length | 12.6 Inches | | Item Type Name | Knife | | Item Weight | 4.2 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Kiwi | | Manufacturer Part Number | KIWI 288. | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | Kiwi | | Number of Items | 1 | | Size | 8 بوصة | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Blade edge:** Plain - **Blade material:** Stainless Steel - **Brand:** KIWI - **Colour:** Brown - **Handle material:** Stainless,Stainless Steel,Wooden Handle,Steel ## Images ![Knife Kitchen Cut Sharp Blade Cookware Stainless Steel Size (8 Inches) No.288,Brown - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51cm59q+-BL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I bought two model 288 knives. they were sent loose without packing, so they were ruined. how was yours packaged? any issues, merchant recommendations** A: Mine arrived with cardboard folded across the blade and taped (this was the packaging from the factory) in a box roughly the dimensions of an A4 piece of paper (standard 8.5" x 11") and 2" deep with several air pillow packaging cushions (this must be a default size, I get a ton of items from Amazon in this box size w/ air pillows). I have ordered two styles of kiwi knives, the pointed cleaver (288?) and the veggie cleavers for a total of 6 knives. I've never had one arrive damaged. **Q: How is the 288 different from the 488?** A: NO.288 Carving Knife blade 7.75" NO.488 Carving Knife Extra thick blade 7.75" **Q: Does it have a full tang?** A: The tang stops about 5/6 of the way through the handle on this model I believe. **Q: Is this knife thin and does it flex like the 171/172? Is it worth getting 488 instead?** A: Doesn’t flex that much,all kiwi knives are great value,easy to use ,just put them on a steel little and often keeps a good edge,hope this is helpful ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light and sharp knife *by M***I on 10 June 2023* I was first introduced to the Kiwi knives from my relatives in Asia, but despite the low cost, they're quite sharp, light and easy to use.
