Consumer Reports

It’s hard to get nitpicky about a $20 knife, and for more casual cooks the KitchenAid Classic 8” Triple Rivet Chef Knife is a stellar choice.A true value, its looks and design are reminiscent of a Wüsthof Classic. Our panelists found it scored moderately well for all hand sizes, even if two panelists did note minor cramping. Several also thought the blade felt a bit heavy, resulting in less than perfect balance. For more options: The Best Chef’s Knives From Our Tests

A friend has a 4” Kitchenaid sandoku knife that she has never sharpened and it goes thru a head of cabbage like it was butter. I bought a bigger one (7”) expecting the same or better but this is just another cheap blade that needs sharpening after every use. Nothing special about this knife….

Not what I was hoping for.

I bought these because we needed a simpler option than our Shun knives for the kids to use and my husband wanted something dishwasher safe.  These are about as sharp as my Japanese knives and they are holding up well in the dishwasher. These knives cost about $350 less so I’d say they were worth it!

Saved my Shun Knives

 I even used it to cut the remains of my solid chocolate Easter bunny (that was still good until April 2022, but I needed some chocolate). This knife went right through it as well as a regular kitchen knife.  This does have a heavy-duty “blade”, a harder plastic handle, and of course a plastic blade cover.  This is currently listed around $10 before tax, and it is a solidly built knife, again, depending on how you use it

I don’t get into the “technical” specifics of the knives – hilts, rivets, tangs. I get that some people will want the knife for a different reason and certain things are important to them. For me, aesthetics can be pushed to the side for durability and function. I want a knife that FUNCTIONS

This is currently listed around $10 before tax, and it is a solidly built knife, again, depending on how you use it. The weight and “grip”, for me, are excellent for its size. I love the blade cover for it

 It looks “fine” to me. I’m not looking to win an award and have people WOWED by my cutlery. I want it to FUNCTION.

Great Knife

Not impressed with set so far for the price. The wooden block was separated out of the box and several of the steak knives have pin size holes in the silver part of the handle. I previouy had a stainles set by KitchenAid so I had high hopes for this being a bigger set than I previously had. I opted for a replacement so hopefully I got a dud and the next one will be better

I got a dud maybe....

  One thing that would improve this product would be a sheath to protect the blade during storage. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Solid, comfortable knife

Cheap knives, you’re paying for the name, handles are cheap plastic and mine had a big glob of glue on one of the larger knives. Knives feel very light and cheap. Ended up returning and going with a better brand.

Cheap knives

I simply wanted something cheap for camping since I certainly did not want to risk dulling, chipping, or losing my German made kitchen set. As a plus, they come with sheaths which was a plus for my application. Not the greatest steel, so have a honer and sharpener handy.

Good cheap knives

it replaced my other steak knifes that was part of the set. Even it is not the same but it is close enough and is shaper too

sharp and good price

The handle of the knives were rusty and the stainless steel was peeling off directly out of the box. Looks like they were damaged or previously used. Not impressed

Rusted and peeling right out of the box

I purchased this knife so my 9yo & 12yo would have a knife more appropriately sized for them to learn safe kitchen knife skills. So far it has been great. It has been holding an edge well and is small enough for them to functionally use safely.

Bought for my kids to learn kitchen knife skills

Best Chef's Knives From Consumer Reports' Tests

This 8" knife is commonly used for home and professional kitchens. The thin blade and bolster allows you to easily cut and slice almost any food. This knife features dimples which help cut foods like apples and squash.

TechGearLab

The MAC Mighty chef's knife is indeed mighty. With a razor-sharp factory edge and an ergonomic wooden handle, this knife tore through everything we threw at it. An excellent slicer, it could pull off the thinnest of cuts and turn carrots into perfect matchsticks. The dimpled or Granton edge made veggies roll off the side of the blade with much greater ease than many of the other knives we tested, leaving you to cut as fast as you want without having to stop and wipe off the blade. 
This blade has a smaller rocker than classical Europeanchef's knives, so it might take some adjusting if that's what you are used to working with. With a higher price tag and a thin blade that could be more challenging to care for, this MAC knife is best suited for experienced cooks that are looking to upgrade.

Upgrade Pick

I know skilled home chefs with vics from decades ago as their main knives. They're really decent knives. That said, not everyone has the time or inclination to learn knife sharpening. In that case, I would go for the MAC MTH-80, as it is a solid step up from a vic and has the edge retention that you will need if you're not sharpening often, without being chippy or overly delicate

I'm contemplating upgrading to a Tojiro DP Gyuto after around a year of using the Victorinox rosewood, Robert Welch cooks knife and Victorinox paring, but I wanted to hear what other people thought about knives past the budget price point. I failed miserably at sharpening so will be using a paid service for the time being (I think they use a grindstone).  What can I expect as a home cook if I were to upgrade?  Besides better edge retention, balance and steel, what does this actually do for my home cooking?  I also work in a café serving burgers and similar foods so I do some long vegetable prep every couple of weeks.

Understanding Chefs Knives

 This knife is definitely better then my last one, but I just expected it to be sharper. I feel like it struggles through vegetable skins sometimes. But it hasn’t failed to cut anything I’ve asked it to, so I’m not completely disappointed. I was just expecting to be more thrilled with it

Nice knife. Didn’t live up to expectation.

 I have only honed it lightly a few times with a borosilicate glass steel after smacking the cutting block with my poor style. This thing rocks. With my Chicago Cutlery knives the same abuse would put very slight dents in the edge barely visible as a glint of light under a bright light and I could feel the loss of sharpness after a few cuts. The edge on the MAC is so acute and fine that I didn't want to take a change and loose anything with a steel (which is not recommended) or even a 1200 grit ceramic steel (which is recommended) so I went with the borosilicate glass rod which is finer

I have the MTH-80 Mighty Chef Knife with Dimples. It came extremely sharp out of the box and stays that way. I have only honed it lightly a few times with a borosilicate glass steel after smacking the cutting block with my poor style. This thing rocks

 I use a belt grinder with micro grit belts. This leaves a convex edge like it comes from the factory. I have also sharpened it on Japanese water stones and an Edge Pro. All work well

  This knife is thinner, lighter, the steel is harder, it holds a edge better, and is more nimble then a comparable Western knife like a Wusthof or Henckel. Some may not like that. I do, although you don't want to use it like a clever and you probably could get away with that with Wusthof or Henckel. They both have their place but I like the MAC for my style of use

Best knife I have. Razor sharp and feels good

 I was excited about my entry to tilt high carbon steel because of the durability ratings but the ergonomics may be s deal breaker.

 At this point I'm torn. Do I learn to maneuver around it or do I return the Food and Wine "Knife of the Year " and continue my search. I was excited about my entry to tilt high carbon steel because of the durability ratings but the ergonomics may be s deal breaker.

 I researched for a week and the mor I researched the more I was drawn to this MAC. Upon opening it was as advertised great razor sharpness that cuts the same now as a month ago- effortlessly. From meat prep to fruits and veggies this was a delight.

. My family often will leave my Zwilling dirty in the sink, sometimes in water, sometimes not. Obviously you can't have that with this knife so ì have segregated it from my otherwise all German stainless steel knives. My issue is ergonomics

 Obviously you can't have that with this knife so ì have segregated it from my otherwise all German stainless steel knives. My issue is ergonomics. The knife handle in my hand feels a little small. That is usually born out when I am in the kitchen doing knife work for an hour or more

Dream knife except for XL hands

 the mac is only slightly sharper. i can't speak for the edge retention cause i only used the mac for a week or so but im positive it will be much better than the victorinox. as far as weight and feel in the hand, the mac is better for my smaller hands. it didn't initially feel amazing to me, but it feels light and powerful and i think ill grow to love it over time

 as far as weight and feel in the hand, the mac is better for my smaller hands. it didn't initially feel amazing to me, but it feels light and powerful and i think ill grow to love it over time. speaking purely in terms of money and value, if i had to do it all over again i would have probably just bought the spyderco sharpening set with ultra fine rods and maintained my victorinox. but as a food lover and rabid cook, i don't regret buying the mac as it is slightly sharper and will hold an edge much longer, it's just i feel slightly sour in that i expected to be blown away and was not

good overall knife but didn't blow me away
