  • As Sharp as they are beautiful
Color: Black Titanium Nitride Coated Size: 6 inch
Beautifully designed cutlery that is functional comfortable and extremely sharp. The box it comes in is as nice of a box as you could put something in beautifully crafted with a sheath and a metal Dalstrong pin so if you’re giving this as a gift it’s perfect. I already purchased zwilling pros that were made in Germany and while I love them they just were two classic looking…. they look like every other knife in every kitchen across America and I wanted something more modern and different and these certainly fit the bill. The quality is just about as good but they are half the price with a lifetime warranty. They are 20 to 30% sharper and more comfortable and lighter. Pros: modern design. It seriously looks like a stealth fighter landed on your counter top. Definitely a conversation piece one guess come over. Extremely sharp out of the box Well balanced Light but not “cheap” feeling Extremely comfortable in the hand actually the most comfortable kitchen knife I have ever held. While I’m not a professional cook I’m a long time knife collector and these knives are beautiful and functional and extremely comfortable. All the handles are the same size whether you have a pairing knife or their 10 1/2 inch sushi knife you can actually grip them comfortably. I am a large man at 6 foot six with large hands and what I hate about other knife sets is that the smaller knives have small teeny tiny handles to grip. That would be fine if I could put on my teeny tiny hands to use them but I can’t so they are quite useless to me. These handles are exactly the same size across-the-board which is great. Lifetime warranty Cons: Made in China. I know that they have gotten aeons better recently but usually their products typically fail a lot sooner than American made or German-made or Japanese made products…. Only time will tell. But after Reading all the reviews it seems like they have excellent customer service. The black coating looks fantastic but I’m afraid it will scratch and or wear out over time. I’ve owned some other black coated blades before and after a few months they start looking worn and pick up a few scratches. Since I just ordered these and it’s November I have until February 1, 2022 to return them so I’ll try them out for 3 months and then report back. I wanted to get the 5 pc set but they are sold out everywhere so instead I bought this universal stainless steel knife block and then stuck on their pin on it and it turned out pretty good. Bottomline: these knives are sharp figuratively and literally so just go ahead and buy them you won’t regret it. And after all what do you have to lose? It’s Amazon so you can send them back for free ….and right now you have till February 1st of next year to return them. ... show more

  • Very comfortable to use
Color: Black Titanium Nitride Coated Size: 8 inch
I really love using this knife. It was the cool geometric shape that caught my eye but the handle is not just a work of art, it's incredibly ergonomic. The grip is comfortable and very lightweight. Even though it looks masculine, it's great for women because it's small hand friendly. The blade is thin and wicked sharp. I have some very nice wood handle knives that are good quality but I've barely touched them since I got this knife, I use it every day and I plan to buy more knives the Shadow Black series. ... show more

  • Fantastic Handle Design
Color: Black Titanium Nitride Coated Size: 8 inch
Everything in my kitchen is very much a reflection of who I am. I love to cook and I have always seen my kitchen tools as an extension of my style and creativity. So when Dalstrong came out with their new Shadow Black Series, I was totally intrigued. This knife is totally different from the knives in their Shogun, Gladiator and Phantom lines - all lines of which I own and love for their own individual unique quailities. The first thing that you will notice about this Shadow Black Series chef knife compared to Dalstrong’s other knives is the black, non-reflective titanium-nitride coating on the blade. Not only does it give the blade a sleek, upscale and unique (not to mention bada$$) look, but the coating helps protect against blade corrosion, adds strength to the blade itself and enhances the non-stick properties of the knife. Since a chef knife is generally designed to be an all-purpose, multitasking knife created for those who have to chop, mince and dice frequently, these are all important considerations and qualities. The edge of the blade itself, is incredibly sharp, and it allows me to transition easily from dicing and chopping vegetables to cutting through muscle proteins such as beef and chicken with clean slices. Another major and significant difference you will notice is the design of the handle for this knife, which is, in my opinion, what makes this knife so totally unique. The handle geometry, unlike other knives, is not long flat and smooth. It has the most intuitive shaped angles molded into the fiber-resin that give it the most natural feel in your hand. Instead of you hand molding to the flat edges of a regular handle this handle is actually designed to mold around your palm, giving you a firm grasp regardless of the grip style you use. I have small hands, and this knife felt like it was custom designed for me. My husband, whose hands are much larger than mine, also prefers this knife due to the comfort of the handle in his grasp. The handle also has a slight texture of the giving it a nice anti-slip capability. Another thing I like about this handle, unlike traditional wooden handles is that it is nearly impervious to heat, cold and moisture. Like other Dalstrong knives, this knife is designed with full tang and has excellent heft and balance. If you are planning to give this as a gift, you will love the magnetic close sleek black presentation box that this knife comes in. Every bit of attention has been given to make this knife feel like the prize possession of your kitchen. So happy that I gave this beauty a try! ... show more

  • Thin, strong, pretty, useful
Color: Black Titanium Nitride Coated Size: 8 inch
I kind of know what knife shapes are going to work for me so I ordered this chef's knife. I am very pleased with it. It is quite lightweight and has a thinner blade compared to other chef's knives. I really like the thinner blade. The knife feels good in my hand even with the angular handle. I'm glad I took a chance on this one. I ordered the paring knife and the bread knife as well. Three knives - that seems to be all I ever really need. ... show more

  • Great knife so far
Color: Black Titanium Nitride Coated Size: 9.5 inch
I bought this knife for work and so far its great, nice and light but still sturdy easy to clean and showed up sharp enough to shave with it. Only complaints is when using a pinch grip the top of the knife is pretty thin and jagged so it kind of cuts into your palm with prolonged use and when chopping vegetables they tend to stick to the blade a bit. (I know they have a separate knife for this but I got the chef knife for wide versatility) But I still find it to be an excellent knife with a nice comfortable and slick handle. Also I love the pin that came with it, very solid and satisfying weight to it. I put it on my chef jacket and it looks pretty cool compared to other pins I've had in the past. ... show more
