Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Sharper than my favorite forged swilling henckels small chefs knife. Even better after a quick sharpening. It's sharp and has worked splendidly.

The handle provides a comfortable grip, allowing for precise control during cutting tasks. The only issue i see with it is the handle may be cut in a way to retain grip but since it is metal it is less grippy than say rubber or wood. It handles well w...  Read More

It effortlessly glides through different types of food. Whether it's slicing through meats, dicing vegetables, or chopping herbs.

Cleaning and maintenance are a breeze with this knife. Compact size makes it convenient to store in a knife block or drawer. Only disappointment is that no plastic sheath was included.

Cons

The knife is super dull and wont cut anything. The design and feal is just super awkward and not great as well. Definitely not a chef knife.

Was not sharp when it arrived and we've tried to sharpen and just isn't sharp.


It looks great, with sleek packaging, and made it through two weekly prep sessions while staying sharp (which is good, because ...  Read More

Competitiveness


Following a brief touch-up sharpening on my chef's choice sharpener it performed very well.


The blade of the astercook chef knife is made of high-quality stainless steel that retains its sharpness remarkably well.
