The defining characteristics of these knives is their relatively slim and trim profile, simple but highly-functional blade designs, and handles that eschew aggressive texturing in favor of more aesthetically pleasing designs and materials. The knives detailed here are fine examples in form and function, and should appeal to consumers with refined tastes, but more practical budgets. Watch the video here.
