Best Chef's Knife: The 2023 Tasting Table Awards
"Hast comes out on top, even grading on a curve. Its blade just falls through anything beneath it. Translucent slices of tomato peeled away under this edge, regardless of whether they were ripe, juicy, tight, or mealy. Adjusting the angle is a measure of microns. Your control over this knife is unremarkable in the best sense — it feels natural to use."

"These knives are exactly what you want out of Japanese-style blades: a super-thin edge that glides through produce and a front-loaded weight that makes cutting easy. And best of all, they look great, with the same finish end to end, and the transparent block showcases just that.”
GQ Magazine
"Best kitchen knives for your culinary adventures."
With its strong but flexible 2mm blade and 13-degree edge, it’s impressively versatile for meat, veggies, herbs. In fact, it has been designed as an “everyday” knife and having used it for the past month we understand why. Generously weighted but well-balanced and comfortable, it’s super sharp and easy to handle.

"Best Knife Set for Minimalist Chefs."
The ultra-thin blades have advantages when it comes to precision-driven knife work. From separating membranes on a pork chop or filleting a whole fish, I was able to tackle intricate cooking tasks with ease. In terms of aftercare, I can simply throw the knives in the dishwasher as they’re dishwasher-safe.
SideChef
"It looks sharp, cuts sharp--a leap beyond the aesthetics of the age-old commercial knife set."
When we are knee-deep in filming in the SideChef culinary studio, having a set of knives that can reliably cut cleanly and quickly is exactly what we need.I highly recommend Hast knives for the budding home cook who wants to evoke kitchen envy.
Series Eats
The Hast chef’s knife was a gorgeous slicer with the sharpest edge of the bunch.
"It made buttery smooth cuts during the tomato test and provided great control while mincing shallots. It easily handled raw sweet potatoes and never hitched against tough veggie skins. Since it was made from high-carbon stainless steel, it didn’t get stained or become discolored."
