DALSTRONGChef Knife - Gladiator Series - Forged High Carbon German Steel - Full Tang (6" Chef Knife, Black)

This is a great knife. I needed a smaller chef's knife to replace one that had worn out and this is just the job. It comes beautifully packaged and the unboxing experience would make it a great gift.It is very comfortable and well-balanced. It's a joy to use. The blade is very deep so it doesn't fit in my knife block but the high-quality sleeve it comes in means I can keep it the draw without either ruining the blade or slicing half a finger off when rummaging for something else.You will probably not be surprised to know that it is exceptionally sharp. Only time will tell how well it keeps that edge and how easy it is to sharpen it.

Ich habe bereits einige der Dalstrong Messer ausprobiert und bin jedes Mal von der Qualität und dem Design begeistert. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt absolut!Eignet sich auch als Geschenk hervorragend.

I purchased this knife to be used for smaller tasks that using the 8 inch Chef's Knife would be a bit overkill for. All I have to say is simply amazing. The handle is incredibly comfortable. At first it looks disproportionately large for the size of blade and looks kind of funny. But after some use and using different grips it becomes apparent that the handle is the perfect size. I have larger hands and I find it fits perfectly, my SO has petite hands and she uses this knife all the time. She has actually claimed it for herself and is her go to!It is definitely less intimidating than the 8 inch Chef's knife and a lot lighter so it is good for nimble jobs.This review is born from 2 months of regular use. I have used Shun, Wusthof and by an large Dalstrong has been my favourite. I have found that Shun knives didn't fit my hands well and experienced cramping after extended use. However, I liked how nimble they were. The Wusthof were very nice, I just wasn't a fan of how they felt - more of a preference. I took a chance with the Dalstrong and have since then been slowly collecting a set of 6 blades that I use on a regular basis. I know that there is some controversy around the marketing of the knives and their origin. But that doesn't take away from their presentation in the box and their fit and finish. The company stands by their product and if there is a problem they will work to make it right. Can't complain about that!

I honestly think Dalstrongs are the best knives I've ever used. Well weighted, very sharp and good, hard steel. Very comfortable handles. This Gladiator series is superb for most kitchen duties. I also have Shogun and Phantoms, but they need a lot more care and might not be the best choice for a family kitchen. The Gladiator knives are much more suited to general kitchen activities: you will not be disappointed!
