Description

The Enso SG2 Chef's Knife is designed for slicing, dicing, and chopping a full range of fruits, vegetables, and more. With its curved belly, the Chef's knife can be gently rocked through fresh herbs or spices to produce a very fine mince. Enso SG2 features an extremely sharp cutting edge. Constructed of Japanese SG2 Micro Carbide powder stainless steel, which is enveloped by 101 layers combined with alternating soft and hard stainless steel. The corrosion resistant powdered carbon steel has an unprecedented 63 Rockwell hardness. Powdered steel is used because it ensures a high degree of purity and strength. The resulting blade is extremely hard, ensuring an exceptionally sharp cutting edge. The surface impresses a fascinating Damascus design pattern.

The engraved end-cap of the handle is made of 18/10 stainless steel, which provides outstanding stability and balance. Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan with a lifetime warranty.

    My “go to” Chef knife

    When I need to grab a high leverage big boy knife this is the one I go with. Use primarily with the big veggies like cabbage and big melons and squash. Cuts like butter. Only need to hone , i have never needed ro sharpen the SG2. AAA+++++++

    A joy to use extremely sharp makes quick work of whatever your cutting, I found the weight, and balance to be very comfortable.

    Excellent

    Excellent knife, very sharp out of the box, very good weight balance and very comfortable to handle. Similar to Enso HD 8" Chef's Knife but with SG2 steel.

    Great Knife built with an excellent steel.

    This knife is a great value and an extremely good value at the sale price I purchased it at. It hits way above its price and is comparable to custom Japanese knives in terms of fit and finish. The SG2 accepts an extremely fine edge and retains it very well. It's probably a brittle as many claim but I haven't had any problem, but I treat it as a precision instrument and not a hammer or screwdriver. I highly recommend this knife for anyone wanting a precision Japanese style knife.
