Review: Super Cool, High Quality, well finished, rock solid knife! - Super Cool High Quality knife! First of all, I'm not a chef, but I do barbeque a lot and have had quite a few knives, but never a really good one. Looking for a good knife, first I bought a Victorionox Chef's knife because of the reviews, but I didn't like anything about it, seemed like your normal Walmart knife in spite of all the 5 star reviews. Finally after some more research I bought the Dalstrong and have had it for about 2 months now, here's what I love about it: -At first look, high quality, very solid costruction, well finished knife...definitely met my "cool knife" requirement. -I like the form, very comfortable for a pairing knife, I use it mostly for cutting fruit. -Very sharp, passes paper cutting test no problem. Of course remember to have your honing steel handy, since to keep it sharp you will have to hone it regularly, which is to be expected. I take very good care of it, but one day I came home and found my wife smashing it against the chopping board chopping onions, so, so far it is tough! -Solid handle, really nice finish, does not absorb water, the middle pin with the logo is the perfect finish, plus with the metal on the end you can use it to smash stuff if you want. -Comes with a nice sheath, which comes in handy for storage so nobody gets cut. -No matter how close you look at it, all the terminations and material are high quality. So, overall I'm very satisfied with the knife, I cannot find anything I do not like about this knife. My next purchase will be the utility knife, although I want to try out the Shogun series with Damascus steel!
Review: Excellent quality - This knife is excellent. When I buy a knife, I do not care that it doesn't COME sharp, only that it can be MADE to be very sharp. This knife was both holds an edge fantastically, but as a bonus came razor sharp already. I am in charge of quality and metallurgy for a steel manufacturing plant that makes 2 million pieces a month, so metal is something I know. Pros: - The handle seems very durable, and I like the shape. It's a great knife if you've got a 7 year old learning to cook. (adult supervision only obviously) - The knife has a very nice weight for its size, and handles very well, whether I'm pairing with it or my daughter is slicing. - The angle of the grind is great, and cutting is almost effortless. - The steel the blade is made from, along with the heat treatment means that the blade will stay very sharp for along period of time. Cons: - It's biggest strength could also be a draw back. The steel this blade is made from is VERY hard and will keep an edge a long time. However, that also means that it is also hard to put that edge onto the knife. You need several levels of whetstone and a lot of practice with them to sharpen this kind of knife. Otherwise, you can probably find a place near you that will sharpen them for only a small fee. Bonus tips: - NEVER put your knives in the dishwasher. The high heat of the drying cycle can be hot enough to ruin the temper (heat treatment) on your blade and make it soft, keeping it from holding an edge. It also works like a sand blaster with gritty soap to help remove food that will dull your knife quickly. Hand wash, dry, and put away immediately after use. - Use a honing steel before each use. Honing steels do NOT sharpen knives, but they will help to realign the very small burrs on the edge helping it to retain a sharp edge longer. Use a high quality steel or ceramic one. I am confident this knife and the others I've bought will last me years.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If it is polished to 16-18 degrees on each side, does that mean it can be a knife for left-handed people too?**
A: The serrations are shaped differently on the right side vs. the left side.  The knife is intended for right hand use.  That said, I am ambidextrous, and although I normally use a knife in my right hand, a recent injury has forced me to use my left for a while.  It works fine.

**Q: Thickness of the blade?**
A: Thank you for your question. The Gladiator Series Paring knife has 2.0MM blade thickness

**Q: what is the best way to sharpen this knife?**
A: Hi Gwynn, 

Thank you for your interest! In terms of sharpening, whetstones are the BEST way, although they require a little skill, but scary sharp edges are easily attainable.   I would advise 1000 grit and 6000 grit, although you can also go even finer. 

King brand makes some reputable whetstones and these can be found on Amazon as well. If you are not inclined to try or use whetstones, we would advise using a sharpening device that is suitable for the style of blade.   It is also advisable to take your knives in to a professional now and again if you prefer an expert to handle it and not to bother with whetstones or sharpeners.

I hope that helps!

**Q: Can it be used to peel pumpkin**
A: I would not advise peeling a pumpkin with this knife unless I had a Kevlar thumb protector. I recommend a good quality vegetable peeler.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfection in cutlery.
*by T***N on December 13, 2025*

Absolute high quality knives. Extremely well made. I really like all the different series that are offered as well as other kitchen tools and items. They have some very unique items and one of a kind. I got some of the gladiator series for my oldest son and the show gun series for my youngest son for Christmas. I even got a couple for myself. These knives will last a lifetime and beyond if they are taken care of. I'm a very happy and will be a life long customer. Many more items I will be ordering in the future.
