Kai Pure Komachi 2 Chef's Knife Review

The Pure Komachi 2 Chef's knife is an unusual kitchen knife. At first sight, it is easy to mistake it with a ceramic knife. And it even has the sharpness to prove it. But, actually, it is a high carbon stainless steel chef's knife. The reason that it stands out is the fuchsia food-safe coating covering the blade. This coating helps to prevent corrosion of the blade and makes the knife glide through your food. Besides, the knife is thin, lightweight and sharp, I mean really razor sharp, a pleasure to work with. It is perhaps not the best knife for really heavy duty, that's what the cleaver is for, but for chopping, slicing, dicing, and general food preparation can compete with almost any other chef's knife out there. Even those with a really high price tag.
