Utility
About Utility
The shape is basically a small Sujihiki or slicing knife. As the name suggests it is a multi-function knife used for the preparation of vegetables and precise cutting of meat and fish. The slim profile presents a smaller area to fatty, oily and starchy foods where a wider blade would create a stronger vacuum and ‘stick’ more to the food.
Function – Multipurpose for preparing all food groups. A favourite knife of many home cooks who are uncomfortable with large blades.
Normal length – 150mm
Tip: This knife is also used for carving petite roasts, filleting and skinning fish as well as careful dissection of poultry without hitting bones. An extremely useful size for any kitchen.
Tsuchime Knife Set of 3
This 3 piece set is forged from a high quality (M/V) stainless steel that is very sharp and easy to resaharpen on the KC 100 Water Wheel sharpener. The knives are made by a commercial knife maker in Japan that only supplies large retailers and Department stores in Japan. |Is made by a very modern factory that uses robots and automated processes to achieve exacting standards expected by Japanese consumers and will compare to any Western made resharpenknife at even twice the price.
The Tsuchime finish reduces the adhesion of sticky foods by breaking the vacuum between a smooth surface of the blade and the food being cut.
Fantastic value.
