A few months ago I took a "Knife Skills" class at a local culinary shop. Everyone who handled the chef's knife was shocked and amazed at its comfort since its design is so unconventional. As well, from a viewpoint of decore, they aren't my style at all (which turned me off initially), but once I got it in my hand I, too, was amazed. I kinda hogged the knife when I could, and discovered that my hand didn't get fatigued as quickly as with the other knives (this was a 2.5 hr class!). I promptly bought the large chef's and paring knives. The shop didn't have this 5-3/4" knife; so, of course, Amazon did!

I'm thrilled with these knives not just because of their precision, but also because of their comfort. I would recommend that you locate one of these knives to "test drive" first before buying something you've not handled. As well, I took a tip from Emeril, and bought only the style knives I know I use regularly, as opposed to buying an entire block(ed) set. So, now I own these 3 Chromas, and am wielding them like a pro! Thanx, Chroma Cutlery and Mr. Porsche for designing a beautiful and masterly functional knife.
