I'm a home chef who has also worked extensively in restaurant kitchens so I'm always looking for a good knife. I've never been too fond of big 8-inch chef's knives so I really appreciate this 5.5-inch utility knife. The red handle is beautiful and has an excellent heft and feel in the hand and the particular make of this utility knife gives it just enough of a curve on the back end to let it rock when chopping veggies. Essentially, it works as a shorter, smaller chef's knife (even the short chef's knife offered by Misen is 7.5-inches, which can be a little large) and the only real problem I can think of is that it doesn't come with a sheath so if you don't have the room in your kitchen for a knife block like I do, you have to buy a sheath separately.

I've never had a knife this sharp. My others were more forgiving with touching the blade, so this knife took some getting used it. I cut myself twice while using it the first time and once while cleaning it by barely grazing the blade.It goes through root vegetables like carrots easier than I could have imagined. It almost feels like the carrots are soft as you make the cut. I also really like the size of this blade. It's perfect for everything I chop the most. Good value for the money, especially if you get it for 20% off.

I had a Misen chef’s knife and a Misen paring knife. One of my daughters, a really good cook, has a larger set and told me she loves the utility knife best — it’s shorter and lighter than the chef’s knife, and does everything the paring knife can do. So two in the shape of one. I ordered the utility knife and am really happy with it. My hands are small so the lighter weight and shorter length are good. I can do everything with it that I would use a chef’s or paring knife for. And of course it’s really sharp. I’ve used it every day since it arrived.

I bought this utility knife as a gift to myself. It was nicely packaged, and that was exciting. It looked gorgeous- also exciting. The first thing I cut with it was potatoes. It was a heavenly experience! The potatoes seemed like butter as the knife easily sliced through them. I couldn't wait to get to the onions and peppers! Tomorrow is Christmas so I don't know what all I'll get, but it's going to be tough to beat this knife as best gift ever!
I like the size and balance of this knife for my small hands; I use it daily. The only thing that would make all of your knives perfect would be rounding the heel of the blade, since the right angles are too sharp to be comfortable when the knife is grasped properly. Your price and quality are outstanding.Thank you for the lifetime sharpening service.I hope your paring knives will be available in blue sometime soon, since all of my other knives are in blue, and the set I gifted a friend is blue, and I would like to complete the sets.
I've had this knife for about two weeks. So far, this things has met and blown away my expectations. I've gotten so used to dull knives that I managed to cut my thumb two days in a row in the exact same place with this one; evidently, I have developed a bad habit of slicing vegetables based upon having the blade just stop on my thumb. Obviously, I don't enjoy cutting myself, but finding myself with a very reasonably-priced knife that can do so is wonderful.My son came over yesterday and we tried out the knife cutting Twinkies. If you haven't has a Twinkie in a while, know that Twinkies are virtually bulletproof lozenges that pretend to be food; I honestly have no idea how something so resilient could actually be digested. Anyway, we tossed Twinkies into the air ... MoreI've had this knife for about two weeks. So far, this things has met and blown away my expectations.

Anyway, we tossed Twinkies into the air and then swiped with the knife.Well, the utility knife did NOT slice through the Twinkies like butter, but I can't imagine anything that would. It did cut into them, though, when all my other knives just bounced off of them. As far as I am concerned, anything that can even make a dent into an air-bourne Twinkie is something to take very seriously indeed.Obviously, what I don't know about this knife yet is how long it holds the edge. All indications are good so far.

I recently purchased the paring and then the utility knife... (thinking that the chef's knife was probably a shade larger than I'd really need). This was a good call, and I'm finding the combo of these two sizes very useful for day-to-day prep. Both are nicely balanced, have a quality feel, stay sharp, and mark a noticeable improvement on the aging knives I've been using. The paring knife is great for cutting fruit, mincing garlic and ginger, or other finer tasks. The utility knife offers all the leveraging power and ease I need for chopping a range of veggies, including those denser root veggies like carrots and beets. I'm quite happy so far with these purchases.
I think of this as a small chef’s knife, not a utility knife. But I knew that from the photos before I ordered, so no complaints.It’s perfectly balanced for my preference and is quite nimble slicing and chopping. The handle provides good grip and it arrived VERY sharp. I have another Misen knife, the santoku, I also like.Since this knife and the santoku are made of the same AUS 10 steel I have a good idea what to expect in that regard— it is easy to sharpen and will keep its edge as long as you hone it regularly and use it only on a good cutting board. No ceramic boards! And don’t use the edge to scrape the cutting board, either. That’s what the spine of the blade is for.
Perform even the most basic search for a high-quality knife with superior design, exceptional heft, balance and weight, THEN find Misen. Price point alone keeps these knives head-and-shoulders above any other brand which I have found.If you want to step-up your amateur chef game in any kitchen you are in, Choose Misen. Even if all you buy it for is a utility knife, this Miswn priduct will outperform any other blade in your kitchen, I'll bet.Oh, and I don't bet- I invest. And yes, successfully, since you wondered.I just took a bet on my investment in Misen Knives.I Win!
