Have the Forged Synergy set and wanted to add to it. I give this one 5 star because of the experience with the other knives in the set I have. The knives that I received from Amazon (returned one for replacement) both had small spots of rust/corrosion perhaps from storage in warehouse. I don’t know. My knives at home don’t have any spots. Ended up asking for a refund for the knife from Amazon. Good knifes but maybe Amazon stores them in a humid warehouse before shipping.

This knife works. Trims unwanted fat and skin away with ease.
Maybe the 6″ parer wil be next.
I do hand wipe and drag the blade with every use.

Pros: This is the first knife of this type that we have, so we can’t really compare, but it is much better than cheap knives you buy in grocery stores for less than $10. It’s sturdy, easy to handle, cuts pretty smoothly.
Update: we have this for a year, daily use, still working well without having to sharpen it.
