Very sharp cutting edge
I love the 12 degree cutting angle, as it is sharper and allows thinner cuts than the standard 15 degree angle. The steel is beautiful, but also slick and does not stick to the foods you are cutting. The Rockwell is hard enough with the damascus that the edge should not chip under normal use. Box and presentation is well-done. Difficult choice between the Alpha Royale series and the Executive Plus series. For the 10" Chef's knife, I would choose the Executive Plus series or the new Storm-X for the wider blade and heavier feel.
