,{"id":12684296,"body":"Have stated in some of the reviews, this knife comes in a very decent display box. It can be used to store it so it's not sitting free in your drawer getting dull by hitting other knives. The blade came Sharp, but as a professional knife sharpener, I sharpened it even more. With a very even and polished edge this blade looks wonderful. The logo on the side is a little too large and a little too noticeable. But it does not affect operation. I guess my only complaint about this knife was fit and finish. The end cap on the end of the handle is not the same size as the wood of the handle. So there are rough edges exposed. That's kind of annoying because all I feel of the handle is the ridge or edge of the end of the handle. Maybe that's a one-off thing, but something to be aware of. I do like this knife, and would recommend it. It takes and holds an edge quite well.","image_urls":[],"show_image":true,"star_rating":4,"verified_review":true,"by_shop_owner":false,"created_ts":"2022-01-02 00:34:11+00:00","video":null,"user_name":"B.E.

It's sharp, balanced nicely, and the grip is comfortable, unless you get one that slipped through quality control. I have ordered two, and on one the blade and the handle joint was not perfectly smooth, rather uncomfortable. So I would suggest looking over the knife as soon as you get it, so you can can a replacement from IMARKU during the 30 day period.","image_urls":[],"show_image":true,"star_rating":4,"verified_review":true,"by_shop_owner":false,"created_ts":"2021-12-16 00:34:32+00:00","video":null,"user_name":"Rosella S.","user_image_url":null,"comment":null,"resolved_message":null,"custom_fields":[],"region":"","language":"en","is_foreign":false,"source":"Amazon","product_name":"Kiritsuke Knife 7.5\" | Hammered Design | imarku","product_url":"https:\/\/imarku-us.myshopify.com\/products\/kiritsuke-chef-knife-7-5"}],"highest_rated":[{"id":12068674,"body":" I love the kiritsuke style knives and this one is well balanced and comes very sharp out of the box.","image_urls":["https:\/\/cdn.opinew.com\/review-images\/QNWJHZCICI.jpg"],"show_image":true,"star_rating":5,"verified_review":false,"by_shop_owner":false,"created_ts":"2022-05-20 10:17:59.443851+00:00","video":null,"user_name":"Brandon","user_image_url":null,"comment":null,"resolved_message":null,"custom_fields":[],"region":null,"language":null,"is_foreign":false,"source":null,"image_urls_optimised":["https:\/\/opinew.imgix.net\/https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.opinew.com%2Freview-images%2FQNWJHZCICI.jpg?fit=max\u0026h=450\u0026orient=0\u0026s=0c9c7d31dc4f3a1bacd8f207e5850834"],"product_name":"Kiritsuke Knife 7.5\" | Hammered Design | imarku","product_url":"https:\/\/imarku-us.myshopify.com\/products\/kiritsuke-chef-knife-7-5"},{"id":13774538,"body":"This knife arrived with an excellent edge, I sliced a very ripe tomato with ease.This knife is long to the point of being awkward if you're in tight quarters. My kitchen is very small and very cluttered at the moment, I felt like I was going to either stab myself in the eye or find a way to get the knife point stuck in a wall or something. But if you have room to wield this thing without hurting anyone or anything except what you WANT to cut, it's a pretty cool and functional knife.My only complaints are cosmetic. The handle looks very nice, but has some rough edges between materials (wood\/rivets, wood\/blade tang). All the seller's images show the blade with the ground scallops along the side nicely following the curve of the blade. On other reviewers' images as well as my knife, they are clearly ground into the blade in two sets of 8 on each side - 8 grinding wheels in a straight line using two different angles. This looks a little awkward, and well, cheap. This can be seen clearly in my photos, the scallops don't follow the blade curve at all. It's one of those things you don't see right away, but once you do, you can't unsee it. The individual scallops are also rough at the edges as if there was no finish work done to smooth them out at all after grinding, and they were just generally sloppily done - some of the scallops on mine have scratches in line with them where the grinder wheels made contact. The scallops will still function as intended, but they do not look great.Another thing to mention, this knife does not come with any sort of sheath, and the shape and length of this blade make it very difficult to fit in a knife block as you need a very wide and very deep slot, so this might only fit in a place you need for a large chef's knife, or it may not fit at all. This would be a good candidate for a magnetic knife rack, so you could put the awkward looking sloppily ground blade on display... The blade scallops really bother me, I WANT to knock off more than one star for that, but I like it in every other way. Call it 3.5 stars...","image_urls":["https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/W\/WEBPjpg","https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/W\/WEBPjpg"],"show_image":true,"star_rating":4,"verified_review":false,"by_shop_owner":false,"created_ts":"2022-01-16 00:16:55+00:00","video":null,"user_name":"Geoff","user_image_url":null,"comment":null,"resolved_message":null,"custom_fields":[],"region":"","language":"en","is_foreign":false,"source":"Amazon","image_urls_optimised":["https:\/\/opinew.imgix.net\/https%3A%2F%2Fm.media-amazon.com%2Fimages%2FW%2FWEBPjpg?fit=max\u0026h=450\u0026orient=0\u0026s=c0b40012598e0453c8d9bbdb0cf1d2c5","https:\/\/opinew.imgix.net\/https%3A%2F%2Fm.media-amazon.com%2Fimages%2FW%2FWEBPjpg?fit=max\u0026h=450\u0026orient=0\u0026s=c0b40012598e0453c8d9bbdb0cf1d2c5"],"product_name":"Kiritsuke Knife 7.5\" | Hammered Design | imarku","product_url":"https:\/\/imarku-us.myshopify.com\/products\/kiritsuke-chef-knife-7-5"},{"id":14669505,"body":"I have some Shun knives and several Imarku brand.
