Most people don't understand about China knives.RR ,Taylor etc.Knives look great & work well"at first"! The heat treating SUCKS! Quality Control,give me a break!! First run is usually great...then it goes downhill! I'm retired & sharpen knives...won't buy China....I'll spend more for made in USA or even save & go custom.Buy the best & cry once!!! I've delt with China factory reps.personally....they handled a product I was representing...we stopped using them!
