Rockingham ForgeEssentials 5500 Series Chef’s Knife with Black POM Handles, Stainless Steel Blade, 8

Good weight and handy , sharp

We have had this knife a few months now.Firstly it is a nice looking bread knife, and feels solid and quite comfortable in the hand. The blade is quite sharp and I have actually cut myself with this serrated edges because I was not paying attention to the deceptively sharp edges. I have no problem cutting breads, I have a tendency to cut at an angle and this knife allows me to cut at an angle and keep a straight line all the way.One small not is after putting in the dishwasher we did find the rubber around the handle seems to shrink just a fraction, enough that I could feel the difference between metal and rubber. That said that last time I used it I did not notice that difference, so it may either have "normalised" or I simply do not notice it anymore

Very good, slices everything smoothly, you need to be careful using it though!

This is a substantial knife but stops short of being a full on cleaver, as such it is a much more versatile tool, I like these style of blades with the indents along the side, (these serve to help prevent food from sticking to the blade after a slice has been made) particular selling point for me is one is able to take a very sturdy and firm "full fist" grip on the handle which greatly improves efficiency when cutting something awkwardly hard like a swede. Blade is very sharp (not outstandingly so, but better than expected) - I use a blade guard on this knife when it is in my cupboard and I think this is wise. Knife was £12 when I bought it. Excellent value. Very pleased.

Ergonomically speaking, it is the perfect undersized chef's knife for a small kitchen. The tang seems to be full length so it is safe to use on harder foods. The grooves assist on food not getting stuck while cutting but I wish they were a little bit deeper i.e. more effective. All in all what a great knife. Balanced and not too thick. My only "bad" comment is the fact that this knife comes without a sheath so storing is an issue.

I have bought a couple of these cheap end Nakiri knifes and this is the best one so far. It is comfortable. sharp and food does not stick very much to the blade. I do not use it for very hard veg and it stays pretty sharp for everything else. There is just enough height of blade to scoop up the veg you just chopped to transfer to the pan. For a cheap one, this is as much as I would expect.

Definitely glad we bought this knife. It's a great all rounded, but it cuts sweet potato with ease which is unbelievable

Bought this for my mum as a stocking filler for Christmas, she wanted the Red Drummond one but I couldn’t get hold of it and this was the closest in shape ... she loves it, it doesn’t matter if she uses it on meat or veg it’s so sharp! She’s very happy with it .

It’s awesome

Wir haben zwei dieser Messer seit knapp zwei Jahren und sie haben sich zu den absoluten Lieblingsmessern etabliert. Ich spüle sie ausschließlich in der Spülmaschine (Sorry liebe Mama, aber die Faulheit siegt vor der Vernunft!) und schärfe sie ca. einmal im Jahr neu. Die Messer schneiden super und die Klinge bleibt lange scharf.Es bildet sich kein Rost, die Griffe sitzen bombenfest und durch die Form der Klinge lässt sich alles mögliche super schneiden und klebt nicht an der breiten Klinge fest.

J'ai ete tres surpris par la qualite de ce couteau.

Ottimo, l'ho già usato diverse volte e non mi ha mai tradito.Ben bilanciato e comodo da impugnare.Ottimi i materiali.

Taglia molto bene e si affila facilmente. Impugnatura ben concepita rende molto solida la presa anche se il coltello è bagnato. E' pesante per essere così piccolo ma questo può essere un pregio perchè facilita il taglio.
