It's a beautiful, very well crafted knife with a delicate Damascus pattern. And it's massive, sturdy, built like for eternity and then some.
Even my wife, who doesn't really share my interesting all sorts of knives, said "this one's a beauty".
So why not 5 stars? For one, it didn't come with a sharp edge; I can deal with that easily. And second: for my hand the handle is just too massive and almost round. It's difficult for me to get a good grip. And there a few spots on the handle that could have been smoothened.
But in the end I'm I'm happy to be the owner of this piece of formidable craftsmanship.
