Great knife at a great price
I love these OXO knives, good grip, good blade, good balance. They say don't put 'em in the dishwasher. Know why? They don't melt and are not damaged in any way other than the grit that comes in dishwasher soap blasts away at them and dulls the blade. I'm too lazy to hand wash them so I jam 'em in the dishwasher anyway, after about 20 washes you have to sharpen them again.
Buy this knife
This knife has a sharp well balanced blade. The handle has a comfortable grip and is usable even when wet. I also own the 3.5 inch version of this knife (paring knife I think). Not too expensive, and holds up well to repeated use and washing.
