These ultra-sharp knives are forged from High Carbon Steel. This steel assures the sharpness of the knife is surgical whilst being consummately easy to resharpen. They have been specially made for us by a long-established factory in Seki city that produces a very quality knife for department stores and chain stores in Japan.
SPECIAL NOTES: Not to be used on bone or for ANY kind of twisting or prising. CUT ONLY on wood or HDP. Do not allow Knives to be abused as screwdrivers, tin openers etc. Designed specifically for food preparation, FOR CULINARY USE ONLY.
NOTE: These blades are made with Shirogami Steel (Carbon steel core) and Iron clad which means these blades will oxidise if left damp or wet and should be dried immediately after washing and oiled with a little vegetable oil or Tsubaki (Camelia oil available in the accessories section).
These knives are very easy to sharpen on a KC100 Water Wheel, diamond steel or a 1000 grit whetstone.

The edge of this shape is almost flat for the entire length and is the consummate knife for the preparation of vegetables. The wide rectangular blade is ideal for scooping and the best shape for vertical chopping of hard and dense foods like cabbages, celeriac etc.
Function – Vegetable knife. For Slicing, Dicing and Mincing of vegetables.
Normal length – 160mm to 180mm
Tip: A few models have a completely flat edge with no curve so if you need to roll cut as well as vertically chop (to Julienne or Chiffonade herbs) select a model that has a slight curve towards the tip. This is the ‘uber’ knife for vegetables.
