Makes cutting rib-eye steaks from a 7 rib roast an ease, saves time compared to our previous chef's knife. Very sharp knife, nice grip on the handle. Excellent value.

I really love the look and feel of this knife. I use it everyday for a bunch of different things and the blade keeps it's edge. It still works great, just like it is brand new.

We break down roughly 80lbs of pork shoulder a week with this knife. Maintains it's edge a very long time. Perfect for butchering any meat, not a knife for chopping.

Great butcher knife. It fits very well in your hand and is light. It was super sharp when we got it and was used to process a 1/4 of a cow and worked very well.

Wonderful knife for smaller hand individuals like myself. Exceptionally sharp and lighweight, it excoriated a thick-skinned pork belly with ease. Pricing is resonable in comparison with other brands I've seen.

Super sharp and perfect for what I needed it for, butchering hogs. This knife works very well for skinning pork bellies and other times when a straight knife isn't great. Definitely much safer to use for such tasks.

I find this knife to be absolutely useful at the butcher shop. It stays sharp and it's large enough to cut Subprimals. It is a must for anyone looking to cut large pieces of meat. For this price, you can't find a better deal.

Not quite as heavy as I was expecting, but still a great knife. I like to use it for slicing beef shoulders, cleaning pineapples, and quickly cutting through fatty meats before they become too soft and hard to work with.

This is one of the best butcher knifes I have ever owned. it is easy to put an edge on it and keep it. the lack of butt from forging the blade allows you better control when sharpening this knife. An all around must have for any butcher for a great price.

Absolutely without question the best butcher knife I've ever owned and used. I love this knife-it is a bit long and takes a little to get used to, but once you do, you will not be without it during the chore of cutting large cuts of meat. Fantastic value and truly a great product!

Out of the box this knife was razor sharp. The upward curve on the blade makes for a nice, even stoke when seperating skin from meat.

This is a very reasonably priced knife that works very well. Our classes include butchery and we've used this knife in breaking down whole animals and in finer cuts. In all uses it's worked extremely well, and makes the job easier.
