Excellent knife for the money
By Manuel Antonio Arce Arenales on Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2013
I own Wusthoff, Global, Shun and other high end Japanese knives, as well as an assortment of not quite so high end knives. I also own a moderate collection of pocket knives, including Cold Steel, Spydercos, Benchmades, CRK's, Kershaws, and Zero Tolerance. So after a time I've acquired a fair to middling taste and knowledge about knives. The Zhen knives in my opinion offer great quality at a very reasonable price. VG10 steel from my experience is first rate: highly resistant to rust and stains (especially if well cared for), holds an edge long and is fairly easy to sharpen. The knives are surprisingly lightweight (a plus in my opinion) and are aesthetically very pleasing to boot. Very highly recommended.

The blade has cracked!
By Bluestem on Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2023
I bought this knife in 2013. I use it all the time in the kitchen. Only use it on a cutting board and never cut bone with it. Zero chips in the edge. I've babied it. Only washed by hand. Never dropped it. Only been sharpened using a ceramic stick. So TODAY, I noticed a crack in the middle of the blade that runs from the spine to the edge. I was honestly shocked. I loved this knife. I also have a santoku and two paring knives of the same make, all stellar performers. The chef's knife is supposed to have a lifetime warranty but I'm not sure how to collect on it. This crack has to be due to a defect.
