This knife provides what it promises. A Damascene knife at an affordable price to an extensive quality. In addition, the box for storage for this knife is absolutely worth it. This knife makes more ago than any knife block. But away from the optics, towards the function. A knife should cut cleanly and without pressure. This creates the knife properly. The sharpness seems to never go away. I have indeed a precautionary measure "associated" whetstone of Gräwe ordered to do so.
Gräwe whetstone TWINSTAR grit 1000/400 with holder made of bamboo
BUT: this I have not needed. The knife cuts still like the first day.
When care is recommended in principle only a cleaning with hot water. This ranged far also from always.
I recommend this knife unconditionally if. For personal use or as a gift
