My daily driver now
Razor sharp out of the box and it stays that way. The 8-inch blade is nimble enough for herbs but still powers through squash. Can't believe this is $45.

Bought a second one
After two months of daily use I gifted one to my brother. Fully forged feel, great balance, and the edge touched up easily on my whetstone. Punches way above its price point.

Great knife, handle takes getting used to
The blade itself is fantastic — thin behind the edge and glides through onions with zero wedging. The handle profile felt a little unfamiliar at first since I usually use a western grip, but after a week of dinners it's honestly my favorite. Only wish it came with a sheath.

Good but not perfect
Cuts beautifully and cleanup is easy. Mine arrived with the handle finish slightly uneven, so docking a star. Performance is still solid.

Sharp but I had to return mine
The edge was impressive, but my sample had a noticeable wobble at the bolster and it bugged me every time I picked it up. Customer service was fine about the return, just disappointing QC luck.

Retired my old German knife
I've been cooking seriously for about fifteen years and mostly used a heavy Wüsthof. The Made In is a different animal — much lighter, more of a pinch-grip slicing tool than a chopper, and honestly more fun to use. For all-purpose prep it handles carrots, chicken thighs, and herbs without missing a beat. Sharpness out of the box was better than anything I've owned at this price, and I mean well above it.
