Yoshihiro 46 Layers Hammered Damascus Gyuto Chef Knife and Petty Utility Knife SET (Gyuto 8.25'' (210mm) & Petty 6'' (150mm), Ambrosia Handle)

First of all, I do not speak English very well, so have that fact in mind when reading my review, please.The shipping was fast, it took 2 days to arrive with 2 days shipping. They were nicely and safely packed The Gyuto comes with plastic cover and the saya separately within one box. The petty comes in different box, the blade was in the saya, and there was no plastic cover. The blades were nice and sharp without any scratches. The edge and spine were straight.I had misono Ux10 gyuto previously, but the whole knife set was stolen. Therefore, I was researching many gyutos for a while, yet I decided to Yoshihiro a shot, since the set was in reasonable price range with wa handle.When I used the gyuto, it felt that the blade was little thiker than the misono Ux10, but do not qyuote me on that because I lost the misono a while ago, and I do not have appropriate tools to measure the exact dimensions. The knife is balanced towards to the blade, which was expected, The handle is quite long, despite the fact that I have small hands, it seems the handle is longer than the Shun classic 8 inch chef knife. Overall I am very satisfied with the quality of the knife, I just need to get used to the knife.The petty was a quite surprise. It is very light and easy to handle. The blades are very sharp. I was just peeling potatoes, carrots, ginger and dycon radishes, the knife cut then through like butter and was able to shave them in paper thin shaves.P.S Maybe I was not paying attention to the pictures, the knives are engraved with Chinese characters even I did not choose the option to engrave them.

These knives are awesome. I'm a chef. I work with and around many types of knives. I own many types of knives. I previously had been using Shun knives. I thought those were alright. But then I saw these and decided to give them a try. And they are much better then my Shun. And the price is about the same. They aren't the best Japanese knives I've ever seen. They aren't the worst I've ever seen. But for the price, these are amazing. Highly recommend Yoshihiro. I will be buying more Yoshihiro knives in the future.

I love these knives. They are great quality, sharp as can be and look amazing. I am new to the high quality knife world, however have owned a set of Mac knives as well. These are 10x more appealing and just as amazing to use. Love them!

Mi hobby es la cocina y me gusta tener los mejores implementos.Tengo varios tipos de cuchillos Yoshihiro y son los mejores que he tenido.En la línea de acero inoxidable Damasco VG-10 tienen un buen filo y con un buen balance en la mano.Son muy bellos y disfruto al usarlos.Su filo los mantengo con un afilador alemán de diamante, la combinación perfecta.

Product was shipped and received way faster than expected. These knives were beautifully sharp right out of the box. The weight is perfect and they feel very natural in my hand. I am very happy with this purchase!

it is more enjoyable than using her look

Amazing Japanese knives that are so beautiful and hand crafted with excellence! These are a must have for anyone that enjoys cooking
