Made entirely of stainless steel, this knife is a brilliant choice for those who appreciate Japanese-style knives. The blade's hollow grinds prevent food from sticking to the blade while cutting. This versatile knife can be used for cutting vegetables, fruits, meat, and fish. The sharp blade is made of very hard 1K6 stainless steel with a 0.8% carbon content, ensuring the steel stays sharp for much longer than average knives. The satin-finished blade is honed to a convex angle, making it suitable for both right and left-handed users. The ergonomic, comfortable, and curved handle has a stylish and modern seamless construction from blade to handle.

Japanese kitchen knives are made of extremely hard and thin metal. Therefore, they should not be used to chop or twist into hard ingredients like frozen or bony meat, coconuts, tin can lids, etc. There is a risk of chunks of the blade breaking off. Quality kitchen knives should also never be washed in the dishwasher, but preferably quickly hand washed and dried after use. Storage solutions should keep the blades from coming into contact with other metal objects.
