Pros & Cons
Pros
The takeaway …. It slices through meat almost effortlessly. Cuts bread very well.
It is well made and proves its value with every use. And, for me, that makes it a bargain for the price. For this being so cheap, id say this is not just worth the value but a major steal.
It's very sharp. This knife comes hair popping sharp out of the box! It handles that job beautifully as well. This blade cuts!
Cons
Very disappointed. Don't waste your money. Is awful. It’s a waste of money.
Part 2 is that the knife is very flimsy (side to side). The handle on this is oddly small. Already found rust on the blade.
Now it is dull and won't cut my sourdough or artifical bread. Won't cut butter and can't be sharpened.

Packaging/appearance
Took this out of the package, gave it a wash, and cut some stale bread.
If you want a knife that won’t cut you out of the package, don’t buy this one and choose the dexter instead.
Keep your fingers out of the way!
This knife comes hair popping sharp out of the box!
Competitiveness
This knife cuts better than our $700 cutco knife set.
I've been baking a lot of bread during the pandemic and tearing it to shreds with my cutco knives.
If you're in the market for a multipurpose knife (it doesn't just do brisket), you could do a lot worse than this one, even at ... Read More

I had to cook the flat to 216 degrees until it passed the poke test.

This thing cuts through bread like (pardon the expression) a hot knife through butter.
