We have purchased all of our cookware from them and absolutely love them. Recently I purchased the Short Chefs Knife and it’s the bomb! Plan on getting more ASAP. I had to speak with Julia with their customer service and she met my expectations high and beyond. If you’re thinking twice about purchasing your cookware from Misen, don’t, you won’t be disappointed!

I have many different brand kitchen knives. I have some from Japan as well. I find these knives (Short Chef and Santuko) to be the sharpest knives right out of the box I have ever used! I highly recommend them! Great deal for the price!

I have four of your knives from the original chef’s knife to a similar looking paring knife. This newest version is my ideal for balance and control. I will be buying more for other members of my family.

I love my chef's knife. It feels great and is extremely sharp. The high quality is evident. I will be adding more Misen knives to my collection.

All Misen knives are amazing considering the price. I have the full set but the regular 8" chef knife was a bit longer than my small hands needed. I was excited to see them come out with a short chef knife. I do prefer the blade length and profile of this shorter knife, but the primary drawback is that the balance is not the same as with the 8" chef or the santoku. The short chef knife is more handle-heavy, and where their other knives have their fulcrum right at the start of the sloped bolster (great for a pinchgrip) this one's fulcrum is about a half inch further down the handle. I wish they had taken a bit of weight off the handle to keep the same balance.
All this to say, others may prefer a slightly more handle-heavy knife. With the balance difference and more sloped blade this one is actually better for rocking and feels more like a German style knife. Take that as you may.

I've always wanted a misen knife. My teachers in culinary school always spoke highly of their products. Love the size, design, grip, and weight. Has a great manufacturers edge as well.

This knife is very high quality. The size is perfect for all chopping tasks in the kitchen. I have purchased other knives from Misen and they continue to perform well. They are easy to sharpen and retain an excellent edge.
Highly recommend!

This knife is razor sharp and perfect for everyday kitchen prep. The weight and balance are just right and it feels very comfortable in my hand.

I use it all the time, mainly vegetables. I keep it sharp with a rolling sharpener, maybe twice a year. It holds its edge pretty well.

Nice knife. Sharp and balanced. Good knife for the price.

I like the design and feel of the 6.5" chefs knife. An 8" is just a bit to big for me and I only have a moderately sized prep area. So, this knife fits the bill. Great price on clearance sale too. Just remember to clean & dry after every use to make sure it doesn't get rust spots.

Excellent knife, enjoyed it so much, I ordered two different additional knives to add to my repertoire.

Very glad to add this to my collection. It's almost the same size as the 8in. Chef's knife, but it allows more maneuverability in hand. Only drawback I wish the handle was a little bit shorter.

I look forward to cooking because these knives are a joy to use! I have the chef’s knife, paring knife and bread knife. They are sharp, the perfect weight and size for my small hands! Customer service is unparalleled!!

This 6.5 chef’s knife is not only sweetly sharp, it is an actual work of design artistry. So beautifully made and a joy to use!

As a senior with arthritis in my hands I can no longer wield the full size 8” chef’s knife. I still cook a lot and wanted something more manageable and this 6.5 is just right. It’s harder to find quality 6” chef’s knives and this one is perfect from Misen at a GREAT price point. I am very pleased with the performance of this knife.

I like my utility knife better, but this is a good knife. Not too heavy. Super sharp!
