NOT A TOY
Normally don't do reviews, but for this i will. This knife is great. Got it for around $9 and it trumps any knife i currently have. I use it for some average stuff like cutting meat and it just glides through. I mainly bought it to get back in to sushi making and i have no doubt that this knife...
Does not have to be a Japanese knife .
Will-I've heard great things about Kershaw's "Shun" style knives. I used one only once (Chef's knife) at a catering gig and was very impressed. Here's a link for some comparison shopping. If I'm not mistaking their "Santoku" knife is their most popular.

Sales of Japanese kitchen knives are booming in the U.S. But how many people have the skills to use these superbly-crafted tools to full advantage? Now, internationally renowned chef Hiromitsu Nozaki shares his expertise and insights in a book that will help anyone who owns a Japanese knife to maximize its performance. In Japanese Kitchen Knives, Nozaki teaches the reader how to use usuba, deba and yanagiba, the three main traditional Japanese knives. He explains many essential techniques, such as the importance of understanding blade angle and point of force, and illustrates these lessons by working with ingredients familiar to western readers, like carrots and rainbow trout. Color photos and Nozaki's commentary further clarify the process, and the pictures are taken from the chef's perspective for easier understanding (most other books take photos from the reverse perspective). Each technique is accompanied by recipes that require its...

I happen to like my big heavy western style knives! Granted the blade is thinner than a western style knife, I notice chefs have little nicks and chips in their Japanese knives, and seem to perform no better than mine with things like sushi and more advanced techniques in Japanese cuisine, "cut so thin you can read a menu through it." IMHO I think its just a status symbol among executive chefs.
Good Japanese made knives get sharper and stay sharper longer than Germans. They're also lighter and more agile with less tendency to wedge. Not all Japanese knives are good, and that includes some fairly pricey, popular knives with an unfortunate tendency to chip -- like poorly sharpened Shuns; but a great many others are excellent.
If you believe a properly sharpened Wusthof Classic chef's knife can portion sushi -- let alone stand up to an entire service of precision cutting -- as well as a properly sharpened Tadatsuna White #2 yanagiba, that says more about you, your skills, and your level of discernment than about either knife....
Introducing Japanese Knife Society
For quite some time now, we have been working in the background to try to make some educational knife skills videos for people trying to learn how to use Japanese knives. We have teamed up with Tatsuya Aoki and Mitsunori Ueda to produce these videos and finally have a few that are ready for you. We will be adding in English notes or voiceovers to these videos as they are produced to make the skill sets more accessible to you. JKS hopes to positively contribute to the education of aspiring chefs, experienced chefs, and interested home cooks alike, through educational literature, pictures, blogs, videos, and events. Through JKS gears its educational material towards working chefs, it will be assessable to anyone with an interest in learning about Wa-bocho. And, in this last video, Ueda-san covers some of the basics of katsuramuki, using a cucumber and yanagiba (he used a yanagiba despite the fact that the proper knife is an usuba or kamagata...
