Sunnecko Damascus Paring Knife 3.5 Inch, Fruit Knife with 67-Layers Damascus Steel VG-10 Blade, Peeling Knife with Inlaid Handle Small Kitchen Knives for Cutting Fruit

As someone that loves cooking but only as a hobby/survival skill, I love this knife. I honestly don't understand much about damascus but I think it's legit because I can see/feel the ridges - though it's probably in the lower end of quality (for damascus steel knives). That said, it was so lovingly sharp when it arrived and I have been trying to maintain that with a stone and honing steel. It's nice and heavy, does a great job and it's very pretty.If you don't like maintaining your kitchenware (such as sharpening knives or oiling/seasoning cast iron pans), no judgement, we are all really busy nowadays and have to choose carefully how to use our time. That said, it's only worth to spend this much on a knife if you can afford to maintain it. Otherwise, tkmaxx and tramontina sell good quality knives that are more affordable and I *personally* wouldn't feel as guilty to neglect. This is just advice, of course, I'm not trying to gatekeep, but I feel bad every time I see my knife is chipped because I forgot to take care of it.

Really nice knife, sharp and very nice to handle

this was a gift but would buy again for myself, real quality item, very nice knife.

This is a very nice knife. Steel may be Japanese but knife is Chinese.That said, balance and finish is lovely. Knife is quite sturdy and heavy. Feels nice in the hand.If you have used 'real' Japanese crafted blades they are just lighter, thinner, sharper. At this price point though, this is a cracking knife that will be streets ahead of typical supermarket offerings and will be great for 90%+ of users. Handle finish is very nice.Time will tell how good the steel is. Proper Japanese steel, sharpened on a whetstone is almost perfectly smooth under a microscope, should you have one handy! Most budget steel sharpens but looks pretty ragged and consequently blunts more quickly. You pay your money and make your choice... The steel in these knives claims to be Japanese/folded Damascus style, but we shall see.Generally, even as a knife saddo, I'm pretty pleased with this purchase at this price point.Long John

It’s an impressive knife. It has good weight & balance, is comfortable in the hand & the edge is really quite impressive.It is almost a work of art. My first impressions are that it is outstanding.My existing knives are Japanese steel, but are very much inferior.Highly recommended.

Worth buying quality steel feels nice cuts amazing.

Excellent quality, looks great. Nice feeling in the hand.Tested on a medium ripe tomato out of the box, and sliced beautifully with very little resistance.Looking forward to using it daily for many kitchen tasks.

This company is the real deal, serious craftsmanship and care has been taken to ensure the best possible result, well balanced and just beautiful design, I am in no way a cheff but I admire the art . sunnecko is my chopper of choice hands down, affordable and awesome quality.
