TUO Paring Knife 3.5 Inch - Ultra Sharp Peeling Knife - High Carbon Stainless Steel - Full Tang G10 Handle with Gift Box - Black Hawk S Series

The handle is fat and heavy, so if you like that, this is good. The handle is so heavy that it puts the balance point around the middle of the handle and not at the base of the blade like many other knives. If you have large hands this could be a plus. Arrived razor sharp, literally. Packaging was superb and even included a polishing cloth that is probably microfiber. Box has magnets for closure and could be re-used for something. Unlike a lot of other knives it has a mirror/chrome-like finish to the blade and what they call a "wave pattern" presumably stamped in the blade. It also has logos on both sides of the blade, which surprised me a bit. This knife was on sale for 66% off when I bought it and that was big factor for me. I just didn't want to pay much for a paring knife. I assume it was the style factors that led to the discount, as most kitchen knives are a much subtler looking. It has been replaced by subsequent models, and the discount was actually more attractive to me than the aesthetics of the knife. I have other Tuo knives on the way which don't look as flashy. It's amazing what I'll put up with to save six bucks, but hey, I did, and so what if it looks . . . interesting. It happens to fit one empty slot in my knife block, so that's good. I have yet to use it. Hopefully it will hold it's edge decently well. I've had good luck with other Chinese knives, most of my kitchen knives, in fact, right alongside some well known German knives.

this is one of our better kitchen knives. Well made and VERY sharp out of the box. It has held its edge. We just hone it once in a while.

Excellent knife. An absolute steal on sale. Sharp out of the box. Now it's even sharper. Nice fit and finish. Solid in the hand. Faux Damascus but unrealistic to expect the real thing at that price. Feels good in the hand. Not a feather weight. I even purchased 2 more for gifts.

Good knife, low price, nice box.

It is beautiful, sharp, easy to handle, and weighted in the handle perfect for trimming pork loin to splitting a vanilla bean. It has this Chef's s seal of approval

Now it's pretty and it's sharp but it's very light for a blade that site. We chefs prefer them to be a hit heavier so we do t have to use as much force. It feels kind of cheap and the handle is very slippery and u comfortable. So ce we are putting in more force it pinches the nerves in your hand more causing bruising. Not for restaurant use maybe for at home however it was cheap for the money

It’s heavy and wicked sharp

I am still looking for 2 Tuo falcon 5" utility knife ,a gosĥawk 8" chef knife and 1 goshawk 5" utility

For the price this is a good knife even with out a serrated blade. Not dish washer recommend which I don’t like.

Outstanding blade , well made. Super sharp. Nice Damascus blade

Love this knife--perfect for vegetables and perfect size -- am going to purchase another one

Nice knife and very sharp too.

Product was beautifully packaged; would be amazing for a gift. The knife is beautiful, fits amazingly well in the hand, and cuts extremely well. It comes SUPER SHARP so be careful. I do find it to be quite heavy though compared to others, and while this helps when cutting thru something, it does make it slightly more difficult to perform more delicate tasks like peeling a fruit or potato without taking too much flesh.
