    I got this knife as a gift myself, and liked it so much I ordered five of them to give to my daughters and daughter-in-law for Christmas. Now wish I'd got one for each granddaughter too. Maybe next year.

    This knife was purchased as an addition to my existing Calphalon set. It has proven to be a GREAT investment! I find myself pulling out this specific knife the most because of its fit to my hand. I have better control over this knife because of the weight and fit. LOVE IT!!!
