This knife is a VERY good knife...exactly what its described as. When it comes to usability and quality, it will not disappoint. I have no worries that this knife will corrode, fall apart, sharpen poorly, or fail to hold a reasonable edge. Very solid metal and well balanced. And it has a very nice look to it as well (minor importance, but still).
As to whether it is my favorite knife...well, I am torn. I probably prefer my Global knife (Global 8-Inch 20cm Cook's Knife) to be honest since I find this one to be heftier and heavier in general, and I am a female so the smaller handle of the Global fits me better...and yet I reach for this one a lot. It holds an edge better and cuts smoother (the dimples really do help, I think). For some reason it also cleans up easier. It's almost like it just sheds food and water to leave a nice clean surface...not sure why, but it does. As to which you'll prefer its up to you...either are fantastic knives. I really wanted to be able to try both, but couldn't find either in stores, so I ended up just buying them so I could compare and I really do see how it's a very personnel choice. If you have the space, money, and illogical love of having multiple knives, buy both?
And you may consider this a good thing or a bad thing but...can you really own this knife and not be constantly singing "Oh the shark has pretty teeth, dear/and he shows them pearly white..." every time you cut something? Or maybe that is just me... :D
