Tadafusa "Seido" SLD Tsuchime Santoku 170mm

Great Knife - Sharp and perfectly balanced

This knife is my first experience with a Japanese knife and I am not disappointed. The knife is as sharp as you can imagine and the tomato test was passed with ease. The only thing that I have seen with this knife is the handle. The wood has dulled, but after talking to support, they suggested bees wax, which has resolved this. The only other thing on the handle is the black material that solidifies the join between blade and handle. This has scratched slightly and easily but doesn't impact the knife, hence only knocking 1 star off. I will be buying more Tadafusa knives as I rate them highly.

Insanely brilliant

This is my first good knife I have bought myself I have worked in the hospitality industry for most my life and this knife is a godsend thank you its a game changer.
