Dexter-Russell Basics P94801B 8" Cooks Knife with White Polypropylene Handle

I bought this knife because it was highly recommended by a lot of people. It came very sharp and cut very cleanly. However, I haven't used it long enough to test the durability of the metal/edge. The grip is very basic but I can hold on very well and feels comfortable in my medium sized hands. Great knife

These are used in many restaurants because they are high quality for the price and can tak some abuse. I gifted this to a sibling who is not at all a chef but loves to cook. He raved about its sharpness. This particular variety is safe to put through a dishwasher, though as a restaurant veteran I suggest always hand washing knives. Solid knives for the home cook.

Best knife I ever owned. Sharp and comfortable.

Needed a new knife for the house because the set I bought earlier from Big Lots made my Farberware rusted in a few months of use. I'll never buy cheap made in China knives again because they claimed it was stainless steel but in fact, they were not! But this knife...I believe this knife was made in USA (the company says all their stuff is made in USA) but the steel was Japanese. Thought it would have been USA steel but I am okay with the Japanese steel...it's better then the Chinese steel as I have had bad experiences with Chinese steel. This knife cuts great and the handle fits perfectly in my hand with the design that the handle was given. If you need a daily cooking chefs knife I would say get this one because of the price and the overall quality of the knife.

Update:After a few months of use and figuring it’s strong suits and weaknesses to me this knife is great breaking down meat and trimming fat off and is okay on onions or other produce. I’m not sure if it’s blade angle but when it’s comes to meat like trimming brisket or tri tip it’s fantastic. After reading all the great reviews of this knife from hunters to butchers to home cooks I was disappointed how dull this knife really is. Out of the package I tried dicing onions, chopping celery, and cutting tomatoes which it did but took effort to push the knife through. After the 1st onion I sharpened the knife thinking maybe it’s all that needed but tried another onion out and couldn’t really slice through it without forcing it. I have beat up 8 year old knives that cut better then this knife and will try maybe adjusting the angle or using a more advanced sharpener to try and make this knife worth my money.

If you know these knives then u know. I used to use these when I worked at produce in a grocery store. They are sharp, sturdy and reasonably priced. My only issue is they do go dull fairly quickly. I recc not letting them air dry but wiping them off to slow down that process

The knife cuts super well, and I love it! It’s holding it sharpness through several washes and several uses. It has just the right size handle, and is very comfortable to hold and use to cut with. I use it all the time!

Muy bueno
