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.

VG-10 three-layer steel: The three-layer steel is easy to sharpen, VG10 steel material is loved by professional chefs. Molybdenum, Vanadium, and Cobalt, which enhance the longevity of the sharpness.
The craftsmen of Tsubame-Sanjo create a hamaguri-shaped edge (a blade with a cross-section that resembles a clam) using the traditional Sharpening method. The gentle curve of the edge reduces the resistance when cutting into food. Its excellent sharpness provides a smooth cut.
A balanced Blade: The weight of the blade and handle are designed to balance the center of gravity in the middle of the knife to optimize the cutting skills of professional chefs, which allows to cut into gristly meat, large vegetables, and hard food with a lighter force.
Handle shape: The handle is narrow at the root and thick at the end, so it is easy to hold and transmit force.
Blade: VG10 Clad Stainless Steel
Bolster: SUS304 Stainless Steel
