Very impressed. Would highly recommend.

I had a complete set of Henckels knives, which got misplaced when I moved. A friend raved about his Dalstrong Gladiator series knives, and suggested I buy a couple to get by, including this one and a chef’s knife. They are more comfortable to hold than the Henckels, and the blades seem to be much better quality. I did eventually find my set of Henckels, they had been boxed and put in a closet by error, but I continue to use the Dalstrongs, and will eventually have a complete set.

Pretty legit knife. Has kept an edge well. Easy to hold and well balanced to my needs.

It says “vegetable’ knife, but in our home it’s a pineapple knife. We have many DALSTRONG knives in the kitchen. Each one is well made, sharp, and arrives in a handsome box. We find value for our dollar in these knives.

Ok so the edge might need a little work but the balance and overall feel is great. Works wonderfully on slicing vegetables. Just needs some time on a whetstone but this knife is a great addition.

I bought this knife to keep at our vacation home. I couldn’t justify spending twice as much on a Cutco vegetable knife like I have at my home and {{love}}. This knife is just okay. It has a lot of friction when cutting certain tall items (like onions); it doesn’t slide in and out like butter because it’s thicker. I like the size/length and how my knuckles don’t hit the cutting board when I’m dicing. It doesn’t feel as balanced as the other brand and it feels heavier too. I wouldn’t buy this for anyone else as a daily knife. But it serves its’ purpose at our vacation home.

First impression was good. Nice quality and finishing. A nice re-assuring weight, typical of Germanic knives, however it is balanced heavily toward the back making it feel too heavy. Seems sharp enough, but my fathers old victorionox butchers knife keeps its sharp edge much better for longer at half the price, though this is not an expensive knife. My main objection is the sound of the steel…an annoying tinny ring – either the steel is not quite right or perhaps it wasn’t tempered enough from the high Rockwell hardening. I’m not an expert I just know it shouldn’t sound like it does which rightly or wrongly taints my opinion of the companys claims of being a high quality knife.
I once bought a hattori knife as a gift and had a sneaky look before wrapping it up – it was quality and if you can stretch the budget I would go for some of those perfectly hand crafted Japansese knives, a tad unfair perhaps – for a fairer comparison, (though they might not look as good as this) I would recommend a Victorionox knife instead.
That being said there are two superior ranges above the gladiator series.
I still use this DALSTRONG as it really is finished nicely and cuts with very little effort is a joy to use and feels assured and confident in hand.
I generally sharpen after each use anyway
Mr.A.Gennard –
Excellent knife for me. It is well balanced in the hand, though could be too heavy for some. For me, a man, I like a bit of weight on the blade; it seems to make it easier to chop. I got it for £50.incl postage ; it was said to be about £120 normally. Very sharp edge. My only criticism is that they seem to avoid mentioning that it is a stainless steel blade. I was looking for high carbon knife steel, the type that will rust if left wet, and will stain also. However that type of steel is easier to sharpen and can be forged to a thinner cutting edge. Although the stainless steels have improved and can be narrow and don’t dull so easily they were too expensive for me and I thought I could get a very sharp knife of Knife Steel for cheaper than a high quality stainless. This is good enough for me but they recommend a water stone for sharpening and I have everything but. I have oilstone, two honing steels- one ridged and one smooth, and a diamond stone. I think the diamond is the best bet but it is coarse so I may get a smoother one. I am in touch with Dalstrong about what to use.
Dalstrong call it HC (high carbon) but nowhere in their advert or on the box, on the bunmf that came with the knife nor on the blade does it mention the “S” word-STAINLESS. Is it because they want people to think that it is the high quality knife steel that the Japanese do so well? Have Dalstrong and others in Germany invested heavily in advanced stainless only to see that people still want the other knife steel despite the fact that it will rust and stain? All said, I like it but would not have paid £120. For that kind of price I would fork out (pardon the pun) for (potentially rusty) high quality knife steel- Japanese or German..

It says on the Amazon listing that it is NSF certified but it dosen’t say it anywhere on the packaging or the actual knife i need this knife for my job as a cook and all tools have to be NSF certified hence why i bought the knife because the listing says that it NSF certified, if anyone can help me with this that would be great

I purchased the 5″ Sontoku and I’ve been quite happy with it. It is much easier to sharpen than my 30 year old Wusthof’s and keeps an edge longer. The 7″ Sontoku is working nicely for bigger cuts and where a bit more heft helps. The German ThyssenKrupp steel has a very nice feel to it with little flex.
