Yasuo Black (Complete Gift Set)

Made to a JKC custom design. We have contracted the best commercial maker in Seki to produce this range of black Damascus blades with Japanese type wooden handle. The cold forged blade is tough, hard and easy to look after. The sharpening, with the ultra-thin core is very easy and remains so over the many years this knife is designed to be used in a busy kitchen. 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. The gift Set includes:

1. Paring 80mm
2. Utility 120mm
3. Santoku 167mm
4. Bread Knife 230mm
5. 2 Water Wheels Knives Sharpener
6. Kitchen & Multi-purpose Scissors
7. Knife-Friendly Paulownia Wooden Chopping Board
8. Knife Storage Magnetic Block

All the knives come in individual boxes
