Crafted by Shiro Kamo in Echizen, Japan, this knife boasts a blade made from R2 powder steel, with a hardness of 65±1 HRC. The multi-layered construction and double-bevelled, full tang blade contribute to its overall durability and sharpness. The blade features a striking Nickel Damascus finish.
Complementing the exceptional craftsmanship is a handle made of Blue Turquoise adorned with a white ring Mosaic Pin, providing both aesthetic appeal and a comfortable grip. Noteworthy is the knife’s remarkable lightness, making it a practical and efficient tool for culinary enthusiasts.
Please Note: The handle colour varies from light to quite deep ochre.
Maintenance:
- Avoid chopping hard ingredients such as bones, frozen food, or any rock-solid items. Not dishwasher safe.
- These knives are very easy to sharpen on an M150 Water Wheel, fine diamond steel, and up to 4000 or below grit whetstone (available in the Sharpening accessories section).
This shape is primarily for peeling, paring, or cutting in the hand rather than on aboard. Used for tasks where a larger knife would be tricky or unsafe.
Function – Primarily for peeling and paring vegetables in the hand.
Normal lengths – 90mm to 135mm.
Tip: This knife is a MUST for every kitchen and the ideal partner to a larger chef’s knife.
