This knife is sold as the Calphalon "Katana 6 Inch Chef's Knife," however I think it would make an excellent all-around medium-sized utility fixed blade. The knife is extremely lightweight and ergonomic. The pointed drop point and extra wide blade are a very useful combination along with the full flat grind. This knife can pretty much do everything except chopping/batoning wood.
