Pros & Cons
Pros
Have now purchased two more of their phantom series. The craftsmanship and quality are top notch. Phenomenal edge retention and a very comfortable handle.
This knife is wayyy more than a vegetable knife. It's razor sharp and holds an edge for a long time.
Felt like a welcome to the club package lol. This knife is fantastic. Packaging is beautiful as is the knife.
Cons
While the knife itself is great, the clam-shell sheath is dangerous. The grind on the knife is laughable for the price. And there’s some kind of ugly single sided pin design.
Ootb sharpness is barely even there. Once i sharpened it, it has next to zero edge retention. This one is terrible for sashimi or even seared tuna cutting.
I am not happy i received a chipped up knife when this marketed as a quality knife. It’s very surprising to see a $80 knife be this defective.
Highlights
Quality
Great conversation piece as well with the unique design.
Excellent quality, fit and finish is perfect.
I take care of my knives extremely disappointed.
There are comparable, even higher quality pieces at lesser prices.
Packaging/appearance
As usual, their packaging and presentation is solid.
Packaging is beautiful as is the knife.
Just really disappointed that the case for the knife came damaged due to poor packaging.
Only real complaint, and yes, i know this is stupid, but it was a bit too sharp for my tastes, right out of the box.
Competitiveness
I’m a chef at a high-end steak and seafood restaurant, and i needed a knife that would work to carve up 2.
Hold a great edge cuts brisket like a champ !
While i like dalstrong products, their advertisement and branding is rather gauche.
The customer service for this company goes overboard to please their customers.

Also the metal is strong enough to hold an edge but not so soft that its a pain to sharpen

If you need to do literally any other task just get a kiritsuke or gyuto depending on your technique or if you eat a lot of fish dont want many knives etc
