## Description

Product Description          Product Description Although it may be lighter in weight than some chef’s knives, the generous handle and perfect balance make it a really efficient general purpose knife. For cooks who prefer to use a push or tap chopping technique. This is one of the most instantly recognisable blades on the market. The ‘younger brother’ to the Oriental Slicer, it can tackle the same tough root vegetables and delicate herbs with the added bonus of being lighter and particularly useful at slicing and dicing meat.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sharp

Love this knife holds an edges very weal

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best knives by far ...
*by D***S on 29 June 2010*

Amazing knives. These outshine most knives I have tried including Global, Sabatier and many others. Amazing for chopping vegetables, garlic, herbs and finely slicing raw meat such as steak or chicken.Very easy to use, and have bought 2 for chef friends of mine who have seen and used mine and think they are great. As mentioned by another reviewer, definitely worth buying the Wizard 3000 knife sharpener, as that is amazing and my knives remain razor sharp and a joy to use. I also own Henckel knives which are great and I use henkels for heavier jobs like cutting through small bones and fish etc., and if I had to only ever have one knife the Sahm Khom Slicer model would be the one, and i also love the small paring knife which is razor sharp literally.Once you have bought one of these, you will never go back to other knives. I would rather have one of these than a whole set of any other knives. !! Enjoy !!

*by L***N on 23 August 2015*

Product name inaccurate, misspelled "lightsaber". The blade is unbelievably sharp, just slices through almost everything like air (admittedly I haven't had it long enough to see just how well the blade retains its sharpness). The knife is heavy, without being weighty, and the balance is perfectly centered on the bolster.10/10 would use to prep food and battle Sith with.
