I bought this for a friend's wedding gift because it hit all my metrics for shopping for beginners
1) stainless
2) not too hard or soft
3) good fit and finish
4) thin
5) less than $150, way less only $96 during the december sale
It's asymmetric for righties but my intelligence reports that they are both right handed (we had his fiance catch something and watched her eat). The picture here doesn't do it justice about how thin it is because the knife is all short (widthwise).
Also I wanted to try out my new photography lighting. I now own light umbrellas and full spectrum lightbulbs. Good for product review lighting, selling stuff on ebay, and also taking portraits if anyone needs a passport photo..
And I want to point out the initial sharpening Korin does for free, look at this nice crisp and even bevel they put on without scratching up the blade face:
