UrbanWarehouse Japanese Santoku Style Stainless Steel Kitchen Knife, 12 inch

I love this knife as it is Super sharp. It Has taken my veggie chopping to a whole new level. At 1st you might feel it a bit awkward and bulky to work it, but as you get a hold on it its amazing. It doesn't slip while chopping,you can work with it with ease.Vegetable chopping is done withen minutes. Earlier with regular knives i used to find fine chopping of hard veggies like carrots, beetroot etc a bit tough,but now with this RICASSO knife life and cooking has become so much easier. I'd like to make a suggestion, always keep a serrated knife for chopping tomatoes,as chopping of tomatoes regularly dulls the sharpness of any straight edged knife.

Plus:One of the best knife i have ever used in my kitchen, for the money its easily one of the best value too and its quite heavy too but unlike some reviews stated about unbalanced knife but honestly it felt super easy for me to cut and chop things, the fact we hold heavy things quite tight not to drop it thats how it felt heavy handle is also can be used to smash things like garlic, ginger etc., From chicken to tomatoes its superb experience cutting and chopping was so smooth. Overall best knife under 1000 rupees.Minus:Not for salty water usage even with very few days of usage i already noticed so many rust spots which is totally contrary to what they claim in the description "Rust Proof" stainless steel. See my kitchen sink is also stainless Steel but never developed a rust spots why because its not only about stainless steel its about how pure means what grade it is thats what it matters at least those who lives with salty water areas. So my guess to keep the cost this low they have used quite low grade stainless-steel material.So if you live in salty water area you may want to give it a miss (its really painful to give up on this knife because its very sharp, great looking and superbly built). So everybody else just go for it, for the price you pay it gonna last for years.4 Stars for sharpness, built quality, looks and price.-1 Star for rusting quality stainless steel used.

Great product for a reasonable price! Got this knife after reading reviews and really happy with it. I like to cook,but not a professional cook, so for me it's good enough-supersharp, cuts veggies in thin pieces! And it fits hand perfect!

It had some tiny scratches on it, probably from the manufacturing error, i like how it was in a sealed packet so i knew it was not a used product like some other sellers do, razor sharp edge... pretty sharp as youd expect from a new decent priced knife but i dont think its gonna last long, no balance between blade and handle, the handle is just too heavy while the weight in the blade is just non existent, not good if youre looking for a good knife, i had a feeling the place between blade and handle was gonna snap if i put too much pressure on it, also the length... if youre used to 8 inches or more, this one might seem a bit awkward but you'll get used to it as you keep using it i guess, me personally, i didnt like it, i want the balance and a longer knife so i returned it, pretty good for the price i got it at (595) but theres better quality n all out there, ill keep searching but this can have 3 stars

Best quality

The knife is good. It's super sharp and durable. Well balanced, and design is good.

Honestly I have just received the knife and found it to be of good quality ! One piece little off balance cuz of weight ratio on handle and blade. Absolutely good for slicing filets and breast pieces of chicken and fish. Idle on wooden chop board. I don’t want to comment on durability because I have just received it and little later I’ll update my review regarding the durability.

Long lasting sharpness. Due to heaviness does require to put much pressure while cutting. Definitely better than Solimo knives. Gotta have sharpening rod if you like your knife to be razor sharp, always. Got it for 600, sweet deal. I wish they would have mentioned type of SS, that would put me to ease while buying.
