What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The blade construction details are contradictory: the table lists Damascus Steel and Japanese VG-10 and 67 Layers Damascus Super Steel, while feature text refers to 66 layers and a Japanese high-carbon core, with another section naming 10Cr15CoMoV. The exact steel and layer count are therefore unconfirmed. The listed length also appears as both 7 Inches and 18 cm. Confirm the selected listing's details if these distinctions matter.

Customer feedback highlights perceived sharpness, craftsmanship, balance and a comfortable hand fit, with some describing the edge as staying sharp over time. These reports align with the knife's stated filleting and trimming role, but do not resolve the listing's conflicting steel and layer details. The rating distribution is mostly five-star, with a smaller spread across lower ratings, so experiences are not uniformly positive.
