Sharp, nice width, and feels great in the hand
I love the feel of this prep knife. It is light and even though I have a large hand, it feels perfect. Since I have purchased this knife I have used for everything to what is can do and what it can't do. so far it has done everything I want in a prep knife and a little bit more. It's a chopper, slicer, push chopper, and I've even cleaned a fish. Oh, have I mentioned how beautiful it is? I love it.
