Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of 10-Inch Chefs Knife - Pedro Handle, Handcrafted by Knife Designer Adam SimhaCustomer Review: Don't buy this knife Summary: 2 Stars
This review is not directed at the seller, but rather at the product. I had wanted to buy a really high end kitchen knife for my husband. I stumbled upon a review of knives preferred by professional chefs. After searching for several of the listed brands I decided on this knife, liking the grip as well as the description. It was highly touted by the chef as well. Here is the problem and the reason why I would never buy this knife or recommend it: I of course hand wash it after use, but if it is not dried immediately rust stains develop within hours. Rust stains?! On this quality of a knife?! I was shocked. I leave my Henkels out to dry after use and this has never happened. It can't be a good sign and I am quite unhappy with the knife.
Description of 10-Inch Chefs Knife - Pedro Handle, Handcrafted by Knife Designer Adam SimhaThin, long and deep. This blade's weight is distributed so that the balance point is centered, making this knife remarkably quick and deft. Often the choice of people who'd never considered anything as big as this knife. Very quickly they delight in knowing their knife will not soon run out of blade! The 'Pedro' handle is slightly shorter and a very very grippy handle. Will not slip a bit even if covered in grease and soaked in water. Knife designer Adam Simha designs and handcrafts absolutely superb bench-made high-performance steel blades for his knives. These designs feature body geometry influenced by the best of both Asian and Western traditions. His blades are tempered to a Rockwell 56 hardness to provide toughness, easy sharpening, and remarkable edge holding. Steels used in the different blades are 13C26, 440-C, 154CM, and SF77 stainless. The unique grip: MKS knives come with an injection-molded bicycle grip that is tightly fitted over a naturally bacteria-resistant stainless steel tube. The bicycle grip, with its deep grooves for the fingers, provides a perfect balance of shock absorption and control. Each knife is tuned precisely for weight, balance, and control. They are visually remarkable and functionally exquisite and have been featured in many publications including Atlantic Monthly, the Boston Globe, City, and Kitchenware News. Free with every purchase: a rawhide honing strap. Foodie's Emporium is proud to be an exclusive online retailer of Adam's amazing knives.
