Yaxell Super Gou Chef's Knife, 10-Inch

A terrific knife, beautifully crafted, great size, and extremely sharp. It takes its place in my knife rack in the forefront. How long it will remain as sharp as it is and how well it will take resharpening when needed is still and open question. But its workmanship is extraordinary and one can't help believing it will live up to its reputation as a brilliant knife.

I’m an avid home chef and have an affinity for nice knives. I came across the Yaxell brand and was really impressed with their story and reviews I saw online. Let me tell you, this is the real deal. I just got it today and made chili, using it to chop a bunch of peppers and onions. I have a Miyabi Birchwood chefs knife that I love but this is even sharper out of the box. It goes through vegetables unbelievably easy and even though it’s massive is really light, nimble and easy to use. It’s also extremely beautiful and is the new center piece in my Japanese chefs knife collection, ahead of a Shun Premier and Miyabi Birchwood.

See title above. Long, gorgeous 10-inch blade was bent about 15° to the left near the handle from a shipping accident. A shame something like that would happen to such a beautiful knife--very sharp, too. Cutlery and More returns department quickly issued a refund the same day they received the knife, so I'm updating and upgrading my review.Instead of offering to replace the damaged knife, Cutlery and More does refunds only, so if I decide I still want this knife, I have to start the whole purchase process all over again.

I went with the 10" and mostly use this for sushi/work. It's a great all-around knife. I would always recommend Yaxell over Shun/Miyabi for its overall quality.

Great knife! Beautiful to look at and handle. Sharp as all get-out right from the box. Cuts through onions like butter!

The knife is made with high quality material and beautiful design.

I like the knife!

Legit the best knife I own . I haven’t sharpened it since I bought it and it’s still a razor
