had already acquired a copy of this knife a few years ago. Now I had ever looked for fun, if it's still there - has shared with AMAZON - FRIENDLY! Ordered, delivered promptly. It is very good in the hand and is wonderfully sharp (it stays for a long time if you do not cut on hard documents) - so does the kitchen work fun. Important: You should definitely use the correct sharpener - the skilful pulling the stone by hand is one a lot of experience and practice and the result is often not very convincing ... Use therefore the "Graef CC 150 diamond knife sharpener" - thus remains the razor sharp. Note - the lettering on the meter is "imprinted" and washed off after a short time - but the beautiful Damazener-grain remains natural.
