Pretty darn good for the price. I wanted to try this style of knife in a cheap version before going for the $200 version. It does very well. I chopped up a head of lettuce with it and the blade was almost long enough to cut from one side to the other. The blade went though lettuce very easily and worked great as a scooper after. I would say it was only about 1/2 inch too short to make it. I did try a think skinned tomato and have to use a little slicing action to get the skin to break, but not much. This does come pretty sharp out of the box just like it should but not impressively sharp. Its as sharp as you would expect a cheap knife to be. This seems well constructed. Nothing is loose, and I doesn't feel like I need to be careful with it. The weight is designed for a grip with forefinger and thumb on the blade while the rest of the fingers grab the handle. This is the preferred grip for this knife anyway and it balances well with it. The wood on the handle is not rough and felt good.
After using this I will be purchasing a high end version one day but I plan to continue using this for awhile. I wanted to get familiar with this type of knife to see if I wanted a Nakiri or and Usuba. This is a Nakiri not an Usuba. I say that because some of the labeling on some knives can be vague on this. Nakiri's are sharpened from both sides and Usuba's are only sharpened from one. This knife worked well enough that I am not in a hurry to replace it and will be spending some time getting familiar with the different style and shape before I make a decision on Nakiri or Usuba.
