Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

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.

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


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    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


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Steel is meh but it does hold an edge albeit not as long or as well as zdj189 or aogami super


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Overall i rarely use this knife even with fish after i got my miyabi kiritsuke


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If i need el cheapo i have a gyuto i got for free thats worth roughly 50 that travels if i dont need a particularly nice knife


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I liked the extreme sharpness of the blade but i had issues with the finnish


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The blade seemed to have discolorations on both sides of the blade sorta like rust but not removable the more i tried to remove the discolorations the worse it got


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So i emailed the company they said send pictures of the issues i had and did so
