I rarely write reviews, usually it is for things that I really dont like, but this is not the case. I am writing a review about this knife because at the time of purchase I was a bit skeptical about a Chinese chef's knife with no genuine user review, simply because it seemed to me like most of them were for a "free item for a review" kind of reviews so I didnt know if it was fair to trust them.
I bought this knife for myself, while I cook a lot for my family at home, I never really had an expensive set of knives, so this is my first actual chef's knife. I really like it a lot. To start of, the blade is razor sharp out of the box, I tried that cheesy blade test where you slice a piece of paper with the blade in mid-air and it absolutely what I expected, slices through like butter. The Damascus steel is fantastic, the design that forms on the blade makes it very interesting to look at. It is a forged knife and it feels great in the hand. In my opinion the weight is perfectly distributed and it feels very solid.
The only thing that I didn't like about this knife is the handle. It is plastic and even though it is pretty good feel and shape, it looks cheap, especially with the design circle in the middle. I will definitely get used to it, but initially the handle is what caught my attentions. Although it absolutely has no affect on the knife's performance and feel, it doesn't go well with such beautiful well made blade.
Edit: 04/13/2019
The knife is still as solid and useful as it was on the day I got it. Requires occasional sharpening, but I use it daily, for just about anything. The only thing that happened with it, the very top of the blade, approx. 3/16ths snapped off during my attempt to carve into frozen chicken, other than that I'm very satisfied.

Great product
Excellent knife. Item arrives in perfect condition. Well packaged. Its very sharp, and has such precise cut. My old stainless steel knife was used 1 year and become so dull to the point I have to sharpen it before each use. Hopefully this will last much longer and doesn't require frequent sharpening

This is an extremely cheap knife, made in China and is more of a novelty knife than chefs knife. Ordered it because of the reviews, however, upon delivery I could instantly tell the quality of this knife was poor. The metal is cheap looking, the logo on the handle is already coming off, there is a chink in the blade by the handle. I'm a chef who graduated from culinary school, stay away from this knife.

The pattern is nowhere close to what's on the photo. Way less dense. it has merely 6-7 stipes on the wide side of the knife vs 17+ in the photo. it looks more like laser engraved flatprint of patern
looks like 10$ kitchen knife with laser engraving of fake pattern

Pero si lo que quieren es un cuchillo que sea excepcionalmente afilado, retenga el mismo por varias jornadas de trabajo, y que realmente sea del material que dice ser, no compren esto porfavor.
Recien llegado y salido de la caja tenía un filo decente no magnífico pero útil, tras un simple uso básico de corte de unas horas, perdió completamente el filo y hasta cortar manzanas es difícil ya, también como pueden ver no son 67 capas ni es un "true damascus" sino que da solamente la apariencia pero es acero forjado y prensado nada que ver con el vg10 y miren que poseo un Enso hd para la comparación.
Excelente como regalo para personas no conocedoras por el acabado. Pero solo puedo decir como nota final que es una imitación barata que no es útil para su uso práctico así que mejor por su precio compren mercer o global de la misma medida al mismo precio pero ampliamente superior calidad
