well balanced, perfect fit handle
I have smaller hands and found the longer blade chefs knife to be a little cumbersome to use and was delighted to find the 6 inch blade in my favorite brand. I liked it so well I bought 3 more for gifts!

Great Knives!
We use these knives ourselves and are very pleased. Decided to send this particular one for Christmas gifts to several in our family. We are not chefs, but we love to cook and use this knife more than any other. The knife also comes with a sheath, which is extremely helpful for storing. Would highly recommend it, at any cooking level!!

My favorite knife
I found this knife reviewed by chefs in two different cooking magazines as their "favorite chef knife". As the owner of a cooking school I tried it out and have been impressed at how sharp the blade stays - far superior to more expensive knives I have purchased. It is also light weight and has a very comfortable handle which makes a huge difference when doing a lot of chopping. This is the only chef knife I use at my school now. I recently bought 2 more to give as gifts for my sons in college. I think they will love it!

Excellent knife
My sister sent me the 6" version of this knife for Christmas. She purchased it from Chefs. I liked it so much that I ordered the 8" Victorinox from Chefs. These knives are razor sharp, ,they are well balanced and very comfortable in my hand. The 8" was rated by Cook's Illustrated magazine as the "best inexpensive chef's knife." I trust Cook's Illustrated and Chefs. I am certain I will enjoy these knives for years. Thank you, Chefs, for carrying such high quality products.

Excellent knife for the price
I chose this knife because I needed a step up from the Chicago Cutlery type and didn't want to pay big bucks for a Wusthof. I wasn't disappointed - it slices through meat and vegetables like butter, virtually effortlessly. Since this knife arrived in my kitchen, I rarely use anything else. It seems very well constructed, and the non-slip handle feels extremely comfortable to use. I own the 6" version - it is just the right size and weight for my small hands, and is much easier to control than the 8" chef's knife I was using previously.

excellent small chef's knife
I have small hands and was looking for a smaller chef's knife and was delighted to find a 6" blade in my favorite brand. The smaller blade is easy to control, stays sharp & easy to sharpen. I liked it so much I bought a couple more for gifts.

Great knife for the money!!!
This knife stays sharp far longer than other more expensive knives. Use it for everything. Great balance, handle and shape.
