MAC Japanese Vegetable Knife #JU65 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've become a big fan of MAC knives and this JU65 is a cut above (Ha!). The first thing you'll notice is the beauty of the blade. The blade is well stamped; its just wide enough and the handle is quite lovely. Very solid and well built. This is a knife that will last a life time.

Nest, you'll pick up the knife. For me, the first thing that shocked me was the weight; the knife is light, wonderfully so. As any great knife should, when you hold it it feels right, like an extension of self. Note I do have small hands so as with any knife, you really should try holding a few from the manufacturer before purchasing. Anyway, I digress, the knife is fluid in my hands; the balance is near perfect for me and my hand does not get tired after cutting veggies.

Which leads to the final and most important point; does it work? The quick answer is yes, it works beautifully. MAC is known as one of the best brand of knives out there and the vegetable knife delivers. In spades. It easily goes through anything I through at it. Plus I find that this knife gives me better control on my cuts so that when I want to practice my elephant ear cut or matchstick its actually a little easier using this knife (which makes me think my next knife will be a Chinese cleaver). I can't really explain why this is, it must have something to do with the balance of the blade to handle. In any case, the knife is sharp, well balanced and cuts through vegetables like they are butter.

You really can't go wrong with this knife, for the price its a steal

Shun Classic 6-1/2-Inch Stainless-Steel Nakiri Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have begun replacing all the knives I have accumulated over the years, and after much research have decided that the Shun line will do me nicely. Like most folks I cannot buy a whole set all at once, nor do I think I need a whole set, so will be buying them one at a time. The Nakiri knife was my first purchase of the Shun line for several reason's. I first saw it being used on a popular food show and noticed it seemed to be the chef's favorite knife. He could be seen using it for almost every cutting task, slicing, dicing and even light chopping. I decided after some more research to put that knife to the test myself. This is a wonderful all round knife. It will do almost every task you use a knife for. Notice I said almost, there are some specialty tasks that it does not do well, such as boning and filet work.But when slicing, dicing and chopping vegetables it really shines. It is so sharp out of the box that it requires no effort to slice even the harder root veggies. I find the weight and shape of the knife to be very comfortable and the overall length seems perfect. The "D" handle took no time at all to adjust to and really helps to locate the knife in the hand. This is a great knife and will serve me for many years. Highly recommend.

Bunmei 7-Inch Usuba Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently began working in a Sushi Bar, where I was required to invest in my own knives.I purchased this Bunmei Usuba Knife and have found it exceeded my expectations.The blade is constantly exposed to moisture from fish, vegetables, fruit, and cleaning, and is rust free.It's easy to care for, and holds a great edge.

I use this usuba bocho for chopping all manner of things, from fish, veggies, etc, and I also use to to slice and dice.It cuts effortlessly through most things and the grip is comfortable. As a bonus it arrived with a mean factory edge!I didn't even have to pre-sharpen it.Highly recommended for the price (I paid $77.99).
