Rating: - Great knife, bad stains
I picked up three of these when they were on sale. True to form for this particular model, it does have a decent edge (though not atom-splitting sharp) and a very sturdy and comfortable handle. It's delightful to have several chef knives available as you go along. It does tend to stick to foods, but you'd need a Santoku knife to avoid that (and good luck finding a good one at this price).

Wow, I bought this knife back when I worked in a local Italian restaurant in college. I cut and prepped all the veggies and fruit. One of my other duties was sharpening all the knives in the kitchen. After being frustrated with all of the low cost Sysco knives since they were never sharp and could never be sharpened, I noticed that the boss always had his own knife - at first a Henkel and then a Global. I decided to invest in my own knife for restaurant work. This chef's knife was what I found on sale and I can't tell you how please I was (and still am) with this knife. Out of the box - it was ...
