Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kai Wasabi Black Utility Knife, 6-Inch

Customer Review: Great knife for the price
Summary: 5 Stars

My mother-in-law wanted to replace her $40 multi-knife set because those knifes would not stay sharp. We purchased three KAI Wasabi Black knives for her (Santoku, 8" Chef's, and 6" Utility) as well as the Better Houseware 2404/12 Bamboo Magnetic Bar.

We find the knives to be sharp and comfortable. They definitely keep the sharp edge longer than her old knives. Plus, her counter looks much neater with the huge knife block gone. These knives come in nice boxes and would make a great present.

One thing that puzzles me is why Amazon calls these knives "SHUN Wasabi...". I did not find any reference to Shun on the knife boxes. I understand that the cutlery maker KAI that makes Wasabi line also makes Shun, but that is like calling Scion a Lexus.
