You could not get a better chef's knife for the price. Inbelievable. I have had mine for 6 years and never had to have it sharpened professionally. I keep it very sharp with a steel.
I would never buy any other knife now. I use to only buy Henkels. I must have had at least 6 of these through the years at about $100 bucks per knife. The Calphalon is way easier to keep sharp....and I like the weight better too.

I bought 6 different knifes 5 brands that sell for under $200 a set, this one is in the middle, I like it a lot, weight is good, hefty, I like the lines, big hands are very comfy, it almost might be too big for small handed people. mine was dull, after sharpening it seems pretty good, with OK edge life with reasonable use. I steel it before use, its a solid performer that is not going to compete with high end knives, but would probably be a great first nice knife for anyone that is looking to get away from cheap sets. I give it four because it was pretty dull at time of purchase, but you never know how many times it got shipped before I bought it, so other results may vary.

I bought this knife at TJ Maxx.(Go figure!!). I love this knife. I ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT perform in a kitchen with dull knives. This knife is the BOMB!!! It cuts with very little effort from me. The blade is SHARP and stays sharp. Its precison is wonderful for a knife that doesn't cost over $100. I own a wonderful knife set but I truly use this knife for everything, from pot roast to strawberries. The ONLY ONLY reason why this knife did not get 5 stars is because of the rust spots. I was told about something I can use so I'll be taking care of that problem soon but other than that, I believe every kitchen should have one.

I've been getting into cooking and was in the market for something better than the super cheap lightweight knives I've used my whole life, and decided before shelling out triple digits for a high end Shun or something, to take it in baby steps and try a mid range knife like this and see how it goes from there.
This is a GREAT knife for me to use around the kitchen. It glides through raw meats and vegetables alike; cleanly and effortlessly. It's got a good heft and feels very solid and reliable but is also well balanced. I'm still very careful and methodical with slicing and chopping, but this knife (plus the 5" and 7" Calphalon Santoku set) have taken the chore and effort out of it and made it a real breeze. At this point, I don't forsee a need to upgrade to the high end; these knives seem VERY well made.

This is a handsome knife with its heft and the full-tang full-forged stainless steel body, a great knife in the kitchen and value for the money. I have had this for over 2 years now (gift from my daughter). It has become my knife-workhorse in the kitchen because of its convenient weight, its size; that it is well-balanced and keeps its sharpness.
