## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best knife I've ever used
*by K***L on October 9, 2024*

I use this knife as my #1. I've come back to purchase another Hanzo knife in a smaller size. Best quality knife I've ever used in decades. and This Hanzo knife stays sharp, over a year of constant usage

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the email included useful information about the product and promised future emails with ...
*by L***E on December 14, 2016*

My first impression was that this knife is from a company that has pride and confidence in the quality of its products. Before I received the knife, I received an mail from the CEO thanking me for the purchase and providing hints about caring for the knife. This is the first time I have received a thank you note from a company CEO for a purchase. In addition, the email included useful information about the product and promised future emails with additional helpful information.The packaging is a sturdy, foam lined box with a cutout in the foam and a Velcro strap to secure the knife in place. It serves as storage for the knife so it is not just a sharp blade in a drawer that is not safe, and it keeps the blade from being damaged.The handle is unique in that the front if the handle is tapered into the blade providing a place to position your thumb comfortably while holding the knife. The knife is heavier than what I am used to, but it seems to assist in cutting without applying a lot of pressure. The knife is extremely sharp.Esthetically, I like the way the design in the handle has a pattern that is similar to the pattern in the Damascus steel blade.My sister who is a much better cook than I has already suggested that I give the knife to her for Christmas. I think not! I highly recommend this knife.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Was best value 9.5 inch Gyuto on the market - before 20% price hike
*by D***Y on December 29, 2016*

Hanzo Katana 9.5 inch chef knife is not heavy and feels just right in my hand. I think, it is the Ultracomfort grip that makes the difference, and of course the longer size. The knife comes sharp right out of the box and looks great. I also like that technical details are not hidden in Q & A and are readily available in product description.BUT... Edit Jan 3, 2017I purchased this knife shortly before Xmas 2016 and feel the need to edit my review and add some more details based on my own experience with the product I received.First, at the beginning of January 2017 the product price was higher by more than 20% which effectively destroyed the purchasing value. This is NOT a $200 knife for $100.Second, every online purchase decision relies on product specifications listed and reviews. With product on hand, let’s check how those compare. I used steel tape measure and a caliper to check my 9.5” gyuto dimensions. Declared 240 mm blade length measured in fact less than 235 mm (by international standards) and blade cutting edge was even shorter (see pictures). Declared height at heel 50 mm was just 1mm shorter which may be OK, but declared 2.2 mm blade thickness close to the bolster measured 1.8 mm ONLY!!! It’s almost 20% thinner than specified and will effect knife performance. This big discrepancy suggests that the blade was WAY overground or thinner steel was used. I noticed similar observation from other reviewer, too, thus product quality may differ piece to piece greatly. Also promised 60+ Rockwell steel hardness from specs is different than information printed on the blade 60+-2, which in fact guarantees hardness at 58+ level only. I had no way to verify the truth about this parameter. The same was true for 15° geometry but in this case after checking the cutting edge of the blade with magnifier and actually using the knife, I would trust it.G10 handle had pretty nice shape, was polished, and whole knife felt balanced.Knife was delivered in a nice paper presentation box secured in a foam cut out with velcro strap. The box also contained a product leaflet and a sort of warranty card by Hanzó.
