MITSUMOTO SAKARI 10 Inch Japanese Sushi Knife, Precision Sashimi Knife with Alloy Steel, For Sushi Cutting, Fish Filleting & Slicing (Fraxinus Mandshurica Handle)

Good overall quality. Knife came sharpened but needed to be honed more so to cut razor sharp. You could use it out of the box but again do sharpen it a bit further till the edges shine brightly. There is a concave to the backside of the knife so your sliced fish will come off of the knife very easily. Worth the monies. Highly recommended.

Love the knife , very nice quality and allot of thought put into packaging. Not to happy about ups losing it and it taking longer to get here than what was originally advertised.. not sellers fault

Your sushi time never will be the same after this knife… so sharp and perfect to do every thing on your sushi party!

On day 3 after it arrived I left it on the counter to dry, it got rust by morning. Don’t recommend. It’s not as sharp as described either.

This knife is very beautiful and sharp. I love it so much.

Not very sharp! I expected it would need a slight touch up but it would not even cut a tomato under its own weight. The edge is poorly and unevenly sharpened which would take way too much work to correct. It arrived with a very small ding on the edge about 1" from the handle right out of the box. The handle was rough and uncomfortable as well due to some deep grain in an unfortunate spot. I kept feeling it would give me a splinter. I will say it appears to have potential. Seems to be a descent hard steel although not named. I will be returning it.UPDATE: The MITSUMOTO SAKARI Team reached out and made an exchange. The one I originally received must have been a fluke and slipped past QC. The replacement is perfect! It is very nice to see a company that takes pride in their product and cares about their customers. Based on the replacement and customer service I give them and the product 5 stars.

As it says, on time

This is great looking knife, however it came unsharpened. Also it has two small defects on the blade close to the edge - something that looks like two little dents. This is not a big deal for me, but shouldn't pass quality control by any means. Otherwise knife is just great. Long blade. Little on the heavy side but it not meant to be used as utility.
