MAC Professional 8" Hollow Edge Chef's Knife

Great knife but rusted after 2 weeks!!

Love this knife! It’s incredibly sharp, looks great, and isn’t too heavy. I’ve had it for about two weeks and have used it almost daily without needing to sharpen it. Unfortunately, there’s one major downside: it has already started to rust. I’ve never put it in the dishwasher. I’ll admit there have been a couple of times when I left food residue on it for a few hours or left it in the sink overnight before washing it, but I still wouldn’t expect a knife at this price point to start rusting after only two weeks. I own knives from other brands that I’ve treated the same way and have never had this issue. For how expensive this knife was, I’m disappointed with the durability and will unfortunately be returning it if possible. It’s a shame because otherwise, I really loved it.

So Good

My first C&M purchase. I could not be more pleased with this knife. I read the reviews, watched the videos and saw the NY Times rating and pulled the trigger. This is such a capable kitchen tool. It cuts so smooth and is so easy to care for, you will kick yourself for holding on to those German knives for so long. Buy with confidence. But, be careful. This knife is a gateway drug for an expensive obsession for superior kitchen knives.

Exceeded Expectations

Just an all round all purpose knife. Really nice balance, well finished, razor sharp edge, cuts clean and smooth with zero stickiness through potatoes or meats.
