MAC MSK-65 Santoku Knife  Product Reviews

"Compared to any other knife in this price class, this is the brand to inspect. I have tried many knives, cheaper and more expensive alike. this brand is priced in a range where we expect to find quality knives. I believe that MAC knives are no nonsense, well made top quality knives that outshine its peers in its price range. MSK-65 is very sharp, superbly balanced. And feels great. It cuts and slices where other knives pull and wedge. The hollow spots release food, even the super thin sliced stuff. Great comfort. I am big man with large hands and do NOT like the knive handles with "ends." I find it compromises my grip. I don't want a knife maker to tell me where my fingers go. This knife is good with my hands. Very strong. but thinner and lighter than many of its competitors. I trust this knife to last a very very long time. And it has the japanese edge, which is sharpened at a more acute angle than the standard German/American knife. This is similar to the Shun knives- very hard steel, very thin sharp edge. But it is not damascus, so it's significantly cheaper."
