Even though I have watched several videos on sharpening with a whetstone, the results have been disappointing. Perhaps I need better instructions, or perhaps this particular whetstone is subpar. TBD.
The 7” cleaver has a great weight to it for controlling the blade and cuts through a spaghetti squash or acorn squash with ease! This is the 3rd knife I have bought and have pre-ordered another one. I highly recommend this knife!
I love my new knife. I have used it every day since I got it. It's nice and comfortable in my hand and very sharp! I will be purchasing other new knives and passing on my old knives to my son.
Good buy, nice price and great design. It just feels right in your for doing the work. Planning on getting the bread knife next.
I've used this knife for several different foods (even tomatoes) and am wholly impressed. The blade is sharp and precise, the handle is comfortable, and I love the balance and weight. AND it's beautiful! I can't speak to the durability yet, as I've only had it less than a month, but at this point I highly recommend. I would also recommend picking up the wooden blade guard to keep it safe (or the magnetic board, if that's more your style).
This stand is so awesome, it hold knives well , great display of great craftsmanship , couldn’t be happier
I used this on trimming up 2 briskets, very sharp knife , Etcetera knives are sharp well made knives and great customer service
Beautiful knives that have good heft with sharp blades. Initial review is they will last a long time.
Love them. Heavy duty and easy to use, even with arthritis. A great find!
Used this bad boy on a 2 briskets , cut like it was butter , Knives Et Cetera are super sharp , won’t be disappointed with any of there knives , great customer service also
I was in the market for a more affordable whetstone and am so glad I came across this one. The stone seems to be really good quality and has sharpened two blunt knives well. The bamboo stand and rubber pieces are nice quality, too. I also appreciate the minimal and mostly paper packaging-- much better for the planet! My one suggestion: I hope Et Cetera will offer an accessory stone that I can use to even out and resurface my current whetstone in the future.
These are some bad ass knives. They are so sharp and balanced. My wife loves them. Would recommend them to any one
The serrated blade is a multi-use tool every serious cook needs. This blade is well-made, balanced, gorgeous and SHARP. I've already used it for slicing bread, smoked brisket, fruits and vegetables, and it is quickly becoming a workhorse in my knife roll. I've gotten numerous compliments on the knife's esthetics and couldn't be happier with its performance.
