Customer Review: I was pretty excited about getting this knife. I like the brand and I expected the best quality. It is good steel and well designed. It would be a very nice knife wxcept that the cutting edge is not straight. It is wavy which results in the edge not touching the cutting surface evenly. The knife... more info
Customer Review: My wife and I love these knives, the Katana's! We choose these over some of the other brand name knives. We like the weight and design. I'm a pincher when it comes to how I grip my knives and the rounded edges and extended bolster make it very comfortable. I would try these knives. Go some where and... more info
Customer Review: I've been looking for some knives to replace my Henckels block set that I got a few Christmas' ago. They're the lower-grade Henckels knives and they just don't cut it--literally. So I've bought this paring knife and the 6" chef's knife from the Katana series to sort of audition them before I commit... more info
Customer Review: I was a bit hesitant about buying these knives as I'd read from another site a person had problems with the knives rusting quickly (they noted it happened within an hour, not that they'd left the knives in the sink overnight). However, I have a contemporary styled set of Wusthof Grand Prix II knives... more info
Customer Review: Fabulous knife! Slices through all breads without crushing. Heavy enough to feel good in the hand; light enough to be handy for all.
In addition, this stylish knife looks beautiful on a display rack when not in use.

It is the sharpest knife I have ever bought or used, and I have used a good number over the years including various German and other excellent brands. The balance and appearance are outstanding. The... more info
Customer Review: It is indeed a diamond steel, but the diamond is so rough that it actually makes my knives duller. The main purpose of a sharpening steel is to re-align the blade. Leave the sharpening to the pros. Pros:
It will slightly sharpen the trash knives you have kicking around in a drawermore info
Customer Review: Have now had Calphalon Katana's for almost two years; may initial reactions was what great looking knives, but I've found the beauty is somewhat skin deep. The knives are initially very sharp but they don't hold a edge as well as my (much more expensive Shun knives). But my biggest gripe is that if... more info
Customer Review: This knife is AMAZING. Right out of the box it is super sharp! I originally started auditioning this line of knives with the 6" chef's knife and the paring knife. The 6" was great for the price, but I could tell I needed an 8" for bigger jobs, so I exchanged it for this one. Just last night I was... more info
