The Kai Europe knives arrived very quickly and I am impressed by the quality. Unfortunately, the blade is quite stiff and the blade is relatively thick, how I feel about this kind. Of knives as a disadvantage, because I bought it for fish and for cutting for Shushirollen. In return, the knife engages well thanks to the Japanese handle shape and the great wood. The sharpness is also very good, although I prefer to wait there with a vote, since the factor decides on the time remaining sharpness. Overall, a stable beautiful knife that could be a bit more flexible and thinner for me ..
