I am about as disappointed in this knife as one can reasonably be. I have been a fan of Ming Tsai since his early cooking shows on PBS. I never expected this man who is so passionate about cooking to sell or endorse inferior equipment. This knife is dull by my standards. It can't even cut a tomato cleanly. And don't try to cut raw meat with it. You won't get a clean slice. It shreds the edges and just does not provide a clean cut. Shame on the manufacturer and especially on Ming Tsai. Neither of them have a conscience.

No, and No again, I cook a lot of Chinese food, and when I try to slice chicken, the meat sticks to the blade with each slice and you have to stop and pull it off. Wish I had not wasted my money. works on some vegetables. would I recommend it to any one. NO I WOULD NOT.

It is a nice knife. I like it really like it for cutting cheese and tomatoes.

NO, I bought one and I am very disappointed. It is very hard to cut through raw potatoes and carrots. Very dissatisfied.

NO, No, and no! They are cheap, poorly made and not as advertised. My wife bought these for my birthday, and as we have been married 48 years, I tried to use them, but they are nearly useless. Most of the knives have small teeth that tear meat and clog up. I have some utility knives that I bought years ago at Wal-Mart for around $6.00 each. They are FAR better knives than the Aero Knives. She actually bought these from Aero-Knife, not Amazon. When I called them and asked to send them back (Wife saved them when they were delivered to wait for my Birthday) they said I had had them over 30 days and there was no way they would accept a return for a refund.

I'm sorry, but I don't know the answer. All I know is that it is the first knife my wife grabs to see if it works for her task, and it usually does. We don't have problems at this time, as I know.

Yes it is. This is an American made knife and I use it regularly. It's my favorite knife.

It is not a real benchmade knife, therefore it was just a play of poor "copy-cat" workmanship. The locking mechanism is not the correct size nor shape to hold both ends together. In fact the lock plays a huge role in the faults of this knife. By squeezing the two handles together it's not only putting pressure on the locks bolt, but also on the handles rotating bolts.

I purchased one and it is not a fake. Selling fakes on Amazon would be a very shprt lived business plan. The BK7 is a good knife.

The one you will receive will look exactly like the website. When I ordered mine I noticed the same thing, but the knife I received is exactly like the pictures on the SOG website.

I cannot claim expertise with steels. However, this is advertised as a "sharpening steel", and has very much improved the cutting of knives we have used it on. Thus, I would agree it is a sharpening steel.

No, it has the benchmade logo on it but its not benchmade quality, benchmade knives are generally expensive and this one is cheap

It is a "Wharncliffet" as to designate it to the current "knife lingo". However, an email to Kershaw would probably get the most "correct answer". I just ordered one and I am looking forward to see how it handles as working EDC knife. The Wharncliffe design was used by sailors from the 17th century to handle their everyday work at repairing rope, sails and the general duties upon a sailing ship.

This wasn't part of my response. I responded to whether the knife was "full tang." The "new addition" is in Amazon's description of the product, and I suspect they meant to say "new edition," since this particular knife is not exactly what is seen in the Crocodile Dundee movies.

Hello i confirm the handle is exactly like the knife shown on the benchmade website. This is a great knife! Do not hesitate to buy it.

The picture is serrated, but the blade comes as stated...plain. a nice knife for the money, but if you don't have one already, get a spyderco paramilitary 2. A beautiful blade! Hard to get on amazon, so try knife center, or midway knife. beware of fakes on ebay. good luck.

There's no difference that I see. The description is accurate for the knife that I have.

No, it is a spring assisted knife. You will flip it open and the spring will complete the action. It is a fast opening knife, just not the type, where you press a button and it opens.

I'm not sure, I'm assuming it isn't since I have not seen that term used before. For the money it has been a very good knife, 5 deer down, sharpen it before I start and once again before I steak out. I'm Not sure it needs to be sharpened during processing but I always sharpen again before I make any finished cuts, works for me and very well.

No image displayed. I don't know what knife you're talking about. If you include a model number, I will be happy to look it up and answer if I can.

No idea, there is little or no information provided by the seller. I doubt, for 40 dollars or so, it is true damascus steel, but that is just my opinion which may, or may not, have any validity. I have one, but would I buy another one? No, probably not, with the cost of international shipping and the cost of the knife itself it isn't really a bargain especially if you don't know what you are getting. This goes beyond the scope of your question but there is really no way to answer. All one can do is offer an opinion.
