Alpha-Royal German 8" Kochmesser

Not used it yet.

Love this knife this is my 3rd one for house and business

Für diesen Preis... Bei anderen Anbietern kostet alleine schon die Lederscheide soviel wie hier Messer und Schutz. Gute Verarbeitung, gute Schneideleistung. Vielleicht ein bisschen leicht, aber 1A.

Fantastic quality and beautifully presented. Rasor-sharp, well balanced and comfortable to hold. A joy to use.

Wirklich schönes Messer! Rein optisch gefällt das Messer sehr gut und liegt auch gut in der Hand. Zur Qualität kann ich noch nichts sagen, da ich das Messer erst seit einigen Tagen besitze.

Sehr scharf. Das Messer liegt gut in der Hand und schneidet ausgezeichnet.

Boy is this knife sharp! It is very nice to use, we have a number of Zelite knives, but this is the best one so far. It glides through soft tomatoes like they are not there. you can slice cucumber so fine its translucent... its a great knife. Cracking edition to the kitchen! BUT WATCH YOUR FINGER TIPS!!!!!!!

A few weeks in and this blade is doing really well. It's lost a little of its sharpness, but it's still very sharp and smooth to cut with. In fact, it's so smooth that I often wonder why the blade has stopped moving - only to find I'm trying to force it through the cutting board (which is probably why it's lost a little of its sharpness!!). So far I've only used a steel on it, it'll be interesting to see how long before it needs to sharpen it with a stone. I'm no pro, generally just cooking for one, it feels like it'll be a long time before this even gets close to needing a sharpen. I'll try to update this review in a few months/a year or so with a longer term review. But right now this feels like the last chefs knife I'll ever need to buy.

Bought this to cut myself stakes from joints of ribye. Very sharp and well balanced I put it down caught the handle with my elbow and it's spun 360 on work surface and caught my finger very impressed though was my own stupid fault I got cut.

Beautiful knife . Very sharp straight out of over the top box . Great for producing ultra fine slices. There was a very slight burr on the handle but I am picky Overall I love this knife and it has been finished very well. Very nice

the best knife I've ever had cuts meat like a paper is amazing ....now i can cook:) I used the beef to cut( it hard with a normal knife ) 100% recommend I will buy more than one Thanks

The media could not be loaded. what more can I say, this knife is built to a high quality using premium German steel. The handle is not perfect but is not something that bothers me too much unless I'm quite picky. See video for explanation. Not as well known as Wusthof or Dalstrong but Zelite's mid range knife has set a good example for what to expect from their knives. You can even save nearly £15 by going for the Comfort Pro version which is nearly the same (handle is different). If you want a good knife, made of quality steel that won't cost you an arm and a leg, I'd give this a go. Overall, at this price point, I don't think you can get anything better unless you go for an even less known company who is trying to enter the market with cheap, quality products. I really wanted to give this the 5th star but the handle takes away from the knife's perfection.

Good knife for the price. There are better but you pay more for the real names..... nice weight and comfortable to use. Quality ok. Blade not the best but still very good. Needs looking after though.

The knife balance was perfect. The sharpness was great. It kept a edge.

Wow what a knife, I love this product, its very sharp out the box so does not slip, easy and comfatable to hold with a great weight, comes in a very nice sheath and box at a resonable price, over all great knife will be buying more from this brand in the future.

These knives are really impressive, I have treated myself to several of them over the past few months and they have helped transform preparation of my food. Absolutely superb!

Ordering, despatch, packaging and delivery was first class. Thank you. Short of a decent carving knife in my kit, I found this Zelite 10" Chef's Knifeon line and researching the grade of steel gave me a good quality product at an affordable price. The knife is beautifully boxed and is a real beast ! Good weight and comfortable to hold. I first used it on the remnants of a day-old joint of topside and it sliced well. Very sharp ! So use with extreme caution !! Love it !

Top Qualität Sehr schönes Messer mit guter Qualität.

Sehr gutes Messer, zu empfehlen. Im Großen und Ganzen bin ich sehr zufrieden mit dem Messer, er schneidet sehr sehr gut, liegt super in der Hand, ich weiß noch nicht wie es mit der Zeit sein wird aber bis jetzt super Messer. Einziges Manko, weswegen auch 1 Sternabzug, finde ich die Spitze. Diese ist sehr sehr empfindlich. Ich halte den Messer in einer Holzhalterung die speziell für Messer ist und leider ist die Spitze abgebogen, ich glaube dies soll nicht passieren bei einem Markenmesser, dies ist ja nur vom Eigengewicht passiert, aber für diesen Preis finde ich es immer noch ein unschlagbares Angebot. Und das Messer nur in der eigenen Box zu halten kommt nicht in Frage, weil diese auch riesig ist.

I have bought four of these knives and love them all. They arrive very sharp and should be treated with the greatest of respect. I have also kept the original packaging as it just works well to keep the knives safely out of sight and enquiring little fingers.

Im not a professional chef altough i love to cook. Its super sharp and a joy to use. Love having the leather sleeve to keep it perfect. The customer service is the best i have ever had. If you have a problem they deal with it instantly. I had a minor one and the knife was replaced without question. To be honest i highly doubt you will have a problem with the quality, mine was just a rare one off. I Will buy all my knifes from here now and recommend to friends too.

Honestly, just buy this or its smaller 8 inch counterpart and you'll not buy another chefs knife in a long time.

Really decent knife for its price range.. Stays sharpe for a long time,good weight for my personal liking and the handle is really comfortable.. It comes in a fantastic box and leather case . The only weakness is the actual ballance,but it's not that important ,I guess It really worth trying it .

It’s the sharpest knife I’ve ever had (although I’ve never had a wusthoff or equivalent). It came in a nice box and had a sheath, which was very important as I don’t have a knife block. Out of the box, it was super sharp and a few weeks in, still is very sharp, so sharp that I’ve sliced the tip of my nail without any effort. It also has a nice feel and balance, which makes chopping and slicing a breeze!

Excellent knife. I have been a chef for 40 years now and have used every leading brand on the market (sabatier, global etc) this surpassed my expectations in every way. Nice in the hand, excellent cutting edge, very well presented in a presentation box so all in all I cannot fault it and I received I nice email from the company inquiring if I had received it which was a really nice touch. Would certainly recommend to anyone in the catering industry. Many thanks.

Just what i was looking for, very sharp, you just know your holding quality. Very very nice knife, quality packaging, if you are serious about craftmanship, then look no further than this company Zellite infinity. This is how things used to be made. All i can say is, if you find fault with these knifes, then you are very fussy. Excellent product, you pay for what you get. Dennis

It was a Christmas present for my husband. Very sharp. He cut himself first time, using it :'D very good knife

The price

Well balanced knife, comfortable to use. Carved chicken last night, cuts very easily with little effort. Be careful this knife is sharp. Only put 3 stars for durability as only used twice so far.

So far so good. Great knife, sharp, easy to hold and looks good too. I have already left a review for the seller, but do have to add they go above and beyond. Asked for advice re honing/sharpening and got an email with lots of advice and details, so much more than I expected. Really do recommend these knives and the seller and unreservedly. Look forward to adding to my collection. Hard to comment on durability as only just got the knife but expect good things.

It's not a brand of knife that I was familiar with, I've got some Global and Sabatier, and some other knives. Zelite seemee to have good reviews though so I took a punt on a 4" paring (Japanese Alpha Royal) and this 7" Santoku. First thing. The knife is sharp, no argument there, but it's a spanking new blade and there'd be something seriously wrong if it wasn't. Next, it feels well made even if it is made in China. There's some nice detail to the design and each part fits the next precisely. Next thing, it's comfortable to hold and use. There's a nice weight and balance to the blade. I like the Santoku style of knife over the traditional chef knife that I've always used in the past. I've not made much use of it yet. But what I have cut has been effortless. Now I hope it holds its edge well - if it does then I can't fault it.

Really like this knife, and when it arrived I was thrilled with the packaging. It is quite big - think I maybe should have gone for the 8" but this is preference and takes nothing away from the product. My only concern is it isn't quite as sharp as perhaps I imagined it would be, slicing through some onions and on a couple of occasions, it didn't quite slice all the way through. Could just be me though! Overall nice knife, nice presentation, a little on the pricey side for similar products, but I would recommend.

Attn: You are dealing with Rolls Royce here in both service and quality and is exceptional to see in a retail maerket these days , but believe me here you are and with a very good price. Each knife comes in its own unique box and is very descriptive and has a sheath and more guarantees of performance than you can think of, and even a personal note from the owner in the UK. Recommend 150%, have no worries!!!!!" I feel so proud to be part of the Zelite family of customers(And no i do not work for them, as much as i would love too, i feel like a king using there products!!!!?

I have been a professional chef for over 30 years working at a high level. I was bought a 8 inch knife for a leaving present and loved it so much I bought the 10 inch knife. Wow even better, the knife keeps s sharp edge for a long time and sits in the hand so well, even if you are chopping veg for a long time it is so comfortable I know several chefs that have bought this knife and the love it, great value for money, fast delivery and the box the knife comes in is so good I won't chuckit out. I have had knives that cost 3,4 times the price and this beats the hell out of them.

I've been waiting for a knife like this, I got it on prime day, so was good to get a discount, most people would think it pricy. It's extremely well packaged, so suitable as a gift, very well balanced and light weight. It cuts beautifully, I know ill buy more when I can afford it. I've got a drawer full of kitchen knives that just don't cut it ha ha. Wish I got this sooner, my drawer would be much tidier now! I will warn you it's very sharp, I would watch some youtube vids on knife skills.

Crazy value for money for what I paid for it, in my opinion. A Wüsthof would set you back a lot more for not that much less. The steel seems nice, but doesn't hold an edge as long as my Wüsthof Classic Ikon does. One complaint, I guess, is that the knife didn't come as sharp as a more expensive, earlier Zelite utility knife that I bought (the ones that come in the white box and have no sheathe) - I found that I had to sharpen the knife before use, whereas my previous Zelite was shaving-sharp out of the box. I guess you get more when you pay more - that was certainly my experience. Would give it 4 stars as a Zelite product, as I've had better, but I'll give 5 because for the price I paid it's great.

There is only on eproblem with this knife and that is it is just so sharp. A great knofe to use but could really do with a protective sleeve to keep it safe. We keep it in its (lovely) box although not the most convenient way to store it.

Brought this as a Christmas present for my partner and he loves it. Amazing product and he loves it. The seller is really lovely and offers a very professionally service. Couldn’t thank them enough.

The product was safely but beautifully packaged. The knife was bought as a present and went down well with the recipient. It is 10 inches in length and exceptionally sharp so should be used carefully. However, it does exactly what it is supposed to do. I would thoroughly recommend the product and the company for their personal touch.

Very quick delivery and excellent product. Came in very nice presentation box and can honestly say is the sharpest knife I’ve ever used- glides through even the toughest things with ease. Would highly recommend

This a great knife, retains a good edge, sharpens easily and while it is a big knife, its extremely well balanced and manouvres and slucely easily - i really like zelite knives ( this is the third one ive bought) great knives, great service ) 4 stars onky because i want to have one extra to give the damascus one when i can finally justify it

"I’ve bought this as a gift. Beautifully packaged and really nice qaulity. Very similar to Apple iPad products in design and style. Very smart. Beautiful knife. I may just have to buy myself one."

feedback "Brought 2 further knives to add to 3 brought for us last Christmas. Excellent knives and prompt delivery, would highly recommend them. Only downside is limited range in the Comfort Pro range - small vegetable knife would be a useful addition......"

An excellent well balanced and good quality knife beautifully packed in its own presentation box would make a good Christmas present and would give you years of good service.Would recommend to anybody who wanted a top of the range great knife.I love it and after 50 years as a butcher I know a quility knife when I see one.

Amazing knife Finished touch is wonderful and everything I was looking for. I just wish to them do a Butcher knives cause I bought on from other brand and was very happy to it. Thanks nice
