MAC Chef Set Of 2

The MAC Chef Series Chef’s Knife is a standard size for professional chefs. The fast taper towards the tip is in the style of the French chef’s knife. It can be used for slicing most fruits, vegetables, and proteins on the cutting board. The MAC Chef Series features original molybdenum steel construction. The knives are shaped with many traditional European shapes with a straight handle that’s in line with the spine of the blade, with a pointed tip. Comfortable balance, light-weight, sharp edge, and thin blade all combine to create a precision tool that is easy to handle and control, reducing the risk of hurting yourself while working on the cutting board. Due to their light-weight nature, MAC Chef Series knives can make quick work out of almost any food. Made in Japan .

Features:-

• High carbon Chrome Molybdenum Vanadium steel blade for better edge-retention; easy to sharpen
• Light-weight due to the lack of a bolster and the thin blade eases stress on your hand and arm
• Completely tapered from spine to edge, creating a V-shaped blade that glides through cuts with ease
• Perfectly balanced weight distribution creates a sense of comfort when holding the knife
• Pakkawood handle has the look and feel of natural wood and lasts much longer
• Made in Japan

Sets Includes:-

• 1 x MAC Chef Gyuto 210 mm
• 1 x MAC Chef Utility 140mm

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.

GYUTO (Gyu – cow & To – sword):

This is the Japanese interpretation of a Western Chef’s knife. It is flat from the handle end for about 1/3rd of the edge and then curves to the tip. It is ideal for the Western style of roll cutting.

Function – Multipurpose chef knife. For Slicing, Dicing, Mincing, Filleting and Chopping of meat, fish and vegetables.

Normal length – 180mm to 300mm.

Tip: With the edge flat for about 1/3rd of the blade – 210 mm or longer the knife-edge profile is the same as a 180mm Santoku from the handle to tip and the same as a 180mm Gyuto from the tip to handle – so essentially a 180mm Gyuto & 180mm Santoku in one knife. The 210mm is the most favoured size for most chefs.
