Best affordable Chef Knife Sep 01, 2010 Bought this because it was recommended as the best value for the money on America's test kitchen. If you don't want to spend $$$ for the high priced Chef's knife, then this is a quality choice. Stays sharp, well balance for my liking.

My "Go-To" Knife Aug 29, 2010 This knife is very versatile and I use it for the majority of my culinary cutting and slicing needs. Good weight, well balanced, non-slip composite grip and keeps a nice edge. I always hand-wash it and advise any users to do the same (basic advice for all high-end knives).
Overall, a great standard Chef's knife at a very reasonable price! I highly recommend this to anyone.
Great for the price Aug 29, 2010 This knife has become my go to knife in the kitchen. I own quite a few of the fancier, more expensive knives but I always reach for this one. Why? It's light weight, sharp [and holds it's sharpness better than the expensive ones], and does the job well. Had I known about this knife sooner, I most definately would have saved the money and purchased this brand only. There's a reason why Cook's Illustrated likes it so much. If you go into a Sur la Table, you can cut with it to feel it-they use them a lot in their classes due to their durability and price point.
a good knife Aug 18, 2010 I read all the comments by other purchasers and decided that this is the knife for me. It is a bit larger than I anticipated but really works well. Although I am not a fancy cook, every kitchen needs one reliable knife and this fits the bill. If you like a smaller knife, then maybe this is not the size for you but it is nonetheless a very good performing all around knife.
Great knife! Aug 16, 2010 I was reading an issue of Cooks Illustrated, and they had mentioned what a great knife this was. Were they right! I literally use this knife for EVERYTHING! And when you notice that it is getting dull, just sharpen it. I would recommend this to anyone who needs a good knife. I am planning on getting a paring knife and maybe a smaller chef's knife as well. I love this brand!!!!
