Cuts well, easy to sharpen, inexpensive!
I recently purchased this set of two Kiwi Brand knives, and they have exceeded my expectations. These knives are sharp right out of the package and slice through vegetables, fish, and meats with ease. The blades are very easy to sharpen, maintaining a great edge without much effort. Not able to find these knives locally, so I was thrilled to discover them here on Amazon.The flexibility of these knives makes them very versatile in the kitchen, especially for finer work and more delicate cuts. They’re light in the hand, comfortable to hold, and make prep work less of a chore. For the price, they’re a fantastic value and outperform some pricier knives I own. Highly recommend for both home cooks and pros looking for reliable kitchen tools! Loved them so much we bought them as Christmas gifts

Light and sharp
I was surprised by how much I'd like these knives. They are sharp, light, and super cheap! The wood handle was a bit rough, but it's fine now with some use. Not great for cutting large cuts of raw meat, because you need some weight for that and these are very light. But great for cutting vegetables, cheese, cooked meats, etc. I have carpal tunnel and my hands get tired easily. These knives make cooking much easier and my hands don't get too tired.

Best bang for your buck you will find in a knife
I cook a LOT and I know what a good knife cuts like, regardless of how it might look.Granted, these aren't fancy and the blades aren't thick and heavy. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. The blades are hard enough they have a great ring to them, they are razor sharp and hold an edge very well.And, best of all, if anything does happen to them, you are out less than a clearance store knife.But, after 6 months using 4 different styles of Kiwi knives, they have yet to require more than just an occasional honing.

Insane value
The value of these knives is too good to be true honestly. They’re very sharp and make cutting a breeze. Very light and feels good in the hand. It’s not perfect of course or the best knife you’d ever find, but for people just cooking and prepping at home I don’t see why you’d need anything else. It was $12 and some change for two of them. That’s essentially $6-7 for one knife. That’s the price of a Taco Bell item around me. Unbelievable value and I’m happy I found these! At the price range I probably won’t even bother with sharpening and honing them. Just buy another set when the two I have dull out eventually.

My expensive knives have been retired since discovering the Kiwi.
I used to be a professional chef and I have worked at many different restaurants and have used knives that range from $100-$500 each. Expensive knives are definitely nice and they are usually great quality tools, but it only takes dropping one knife and breaking or bending a tip to realize there is no place for such expensive knives in and actual working kitchen. I found that nobody in a commercial kitchen will respect your tools as much as you do. Whether it is dishwashers dropping them and running them through the machines or other chefs picking them up and using them with reckless abandon, I got fed up with my expensive knives being ruined.I came across these Kiwi knives about 10 years ago in a local Asian market and I have never looked back. They are affordable and pretty tough. I actually still have the first one that I purchased. They are hollow-ground, so they are very easy to resharpen to a razor's edge. They are just regular stamped blades that are full-tang and riveted to a wooden handle. The beauty is in their simplicity and cost. I never really cared for stainless knives. I always felt that they took too long to sharpen because the steel is too hard. I had always preferred carbon steel because of the nice edge that can be achieved with minimal effort. The fact that these Kiwi knives have such a thin blade means that they sharpen very quickly and slide through the material that you are cutting effortlessly. I still use heavy carbon or stainless cleavers to chop through harder things like bone and ice. But the standard Kiwi knife has been the only knife I use for general knife work for the last 10 years, Whether I am cooking at home or on the job. My expensive knives have been living in the knife drawer since I got my first Kiwi. Great value..Great knives!!

Love the knife, hate the wood
The knife shape and sharpness are great, unfortunately the wood is a bit too soft, I recommend treating it with mineral oil before use

I have bought these before
They are very comfortable and lightweight to work with and are extremely sharp. Bought them this time as a gift.

Great knife
This is THE BEST "cheap" knife ever! My daughter-in-law gave me one as a gift last year and my husband and I fight over who gets to use it when we're cooking. So I bought this set of 2 and gave one to a friend. My friend loves it and told me she got on line and bought more 3 days after I gave it to her.I will be buying more of this knife.I have top brand, expensive knives, and this inexpensive knife cuts just as well. This cheap knife has two advantages over my top brand expensive knives: it is very lightweight, and it didn't cost $300.00.I highly recommend this knife!
