It was pretty good the first few months and I like the handle shape and it doesn't rust despite abuse. Its now useless due to the steel being too hard to sharpen on even diamond stones! The thing will not create a burr no matter how much I try, I can only get it to a minimal paper cutting sharpness but with drag, so it's not good anymore. This is stainless steel and a cheap one at that. I read it is on the level of Ikea cromova steel and that knife cost me 5 bucks , this 50. I also ate the name of someone else on it. It says Beverly, who decided to do that!? I would have gone with the blue of I knew it would have a randos name on it. The tip of the knife has slightly bent from gentle use and is the only part that wore a bit and is rounding from trying to sharpen. I liked this brand when sharp and new but it's now become another buyers remorse knife taking up space I can never get sharp. Fyi, the spine is thick like commerical western knives but cut @ 14 to 17 degree 50/50 grind
