Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The kai pro chef’s knife is a good addition to your kitchen cutlery. I really wish it came with a blade guard or sheath. I have kai scissors that are the bomb.

The blade stock is a little thicker than i hoped for. The grind on the blade looks excellent. And it's sharper now. The blade is very sharp & sturdy.

The steel is softer than most japanese stainless. The balance on it feels very nice, perfect for a pinch grip.

Both items are a great value and compare with their high end counterparts. Reasonably sharp and well balanced.



Cons

This has a thicker cutting edge than i'm used to and gave too much resistance when rock-chopping (how i typically chop vegetables) looks nice, but would not recommend. Doesn't hold an edge well, easily scratched and chipped.

Compared with my other expensive branded knives and this one has a reasonable price but the quality is not compromised


I was surprised by the quality of the fit and finish of this knife


I would trust the quality more if it was made in japan

Price


Given the price good very good


Again given the price it seems quite good

Packaging/appearance


Its too wide for my knife block so im storing it in the packaging in a drawer

Competitiveness


Last black friday i bought a set of wusthof classic knives on sale and theyve basically ruined me as far as knives go i really like them


Im a chef of 20 years and a knife collector
