So, in point form (+ = pro, - = con, ! = neutral):
+ holds a VERY keen edge
+ easy to sharpen
! Factory edge is very conservative, so be ready to take it to the stone to get your $200's worth
+ beautiful, not as in your face as snazzy damascus, but this IS a sexy knife
! I'm finding the santoku a little short, now that I'm so used to my 24cm gyuto (maybe I should've gone with an in between sizeā¦)
! Brittle (as most steels this hard will be). Treat it with respect and make sure there's no bloody sand on your board!
! Magnetic saya is convenient, but I can't pull the knife out of my roll using the saya (it slips off). I have to push the handle out from the bottom, then grab the ferrule.
