I just purchased this knife from CKTG! First off, wow, this knife is amazing feeling in the hands. Perfectly balanced and feels weighty but nimble in hand. The thickness of the knife right before it goes into the handle actually helps with the balance/feel. The tip and grind are amazing considering, to the eye, the “thickness” of the knife. After one onion the blade started to patina the next day. It’s just a super unique knife. I love to push/pull cut, so this flatter blade profile is perfect for me. At 6.35oz, this knife is heavier than my Takeda 250mm (5.8oz) and my Moritaka KS 250mm (6.15oz). All blades share the same flat blade profile. Takeda still has the most amazing thin tip, but the Moritaka and this Snapou tip’s are still amazing and thin in their own right. After receiving this knife and taking it out of the box, I was instantly tempted to order the 210mm version because that knife has to feel equally as great in hand with a totally different feel. But, this knife at 240mm (mine is 243mm) doubles as a suji/slicer and Gyuto/chefs knife. I love tall knives (reference a 250mm “Medium” Takeda Gyuto and see what 60+mm of blade can look/feel like) and this at 40mm fits my big XL hands very well. Only drawback is not being able to scoop an entire 1/2 or a medium sized onion with one scoop. Otherwise, this is just a great knife. You’ll be surprised how great it feels in hand!
