### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Beautiful knife
  

*by J***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 13, 2021*

A Xmas gift for my son. He could not have been happier with anything else. He’s over the moon. I have not seen the knife since we don’t live in the same state but I trust his expertise.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Sharp
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 4, 2021*

Great product. Super sharp. Great size for cutting small to medium veggies. Comfortable. Good weight. Good balance.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    (GUM-10) 5" blade is especially convenient for preparing for single meals
  

*by O***B on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 27, 2021*

Global (GUM-10) UKON Nakiri with 14cm/5" Square Tipped Blade, Vegetable Knife:  One of the last knives added to my Global collection, I've found that I reach for it far more often than the 7" (G-5) full size nakiri. It's better suited for the usually small amount of materials needed for single meals. The smaller blade is easier to control in my untrained hands.
