Pros & Cons

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

Pros

The sharpness and maneuverability are the things i like about it the most. Craftsmanship is there.

For this mac. Thumbs up from me. I really like it alot! This isnt the sexiest looking knife but it is really good.

The mac slices through onions like a razor blade. It makes quick work of chopping carrots, cabbage, celery and even meat. It's very light and thin, which works really well for slicing and chopping through onions and vegetables.



Cons

Angel seller, the provider i bought the knife from on this link, is not an authorized reseller. My advice to prospective buyers is to inspect any mac knife carefully.

The knife is sharp but the blade nicks easily - a sign that the blade metal is not hardened. There is a gap where the handle meets the blade at the front end of the handle because the knife tang is forged with a slight convex curve. It chipped 4 place...  Read More

Total bevel angle (sum of the bevels on both sides of the blade) is 45. The bevel, based on visual inspection, appears to be about 80/20 or 70/30, biased right hand.

Quality


As a chef, i like the lightweight hand feel, quality construction and durability of this brand.


Easy to handle and sharp as a tack, it’s my wife’s fave.


The knife developed little rust stains on it after only using it for a week.


Without proper care, the knife will yes rust.

Price


All in all a great knife for the money.


Expensive at $80 buck but not outrageous.


If you're willing to put a tiny bit of care into it, its great for the price.

Packaging/appearance


Not only a stunning and elegant knife but comes in beautiful, giftable packaging (thank you, me lol!


The box is really nice for gift giving.

Competitiveness


This is my first santoku, so i can't compare it to others.

    Its very light and thin which works really well for slicing and chopping through onions and vegetables


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its still sharper than a 30 dollar knife from target over a year since i got it but it finally got a small nick in it this month so i think im going to get a trizor sharpener for it and my other knives since i dont live where i can get it professionally sharpened


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It will get rust spots if you dont wash and dry it immediately after using


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its normal for some knives like carbon steel and nonstainless to need that kind of care but the amazon product description for this knife says rustresistant which it definitely is not


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I dont mind babying it though so its not a dealbreaker for me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One thing i dont like about it is that the relatively flat edge makes it harder to do a rocking motion on the cutting board to finely chop nuts and vegetables like you see people doing in cooking videos


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I still got by with it as my main knife for a year or so before i got a similar quality chefs knife to go with it and i still prefer it over the other one for quickly slicing through onions peppers and other veggies because of how light and easy to handle it is


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Overall its definitely a step up from the 2050 dollar knives ive had in the past so the price seems fair
