Made in Seki, Gifu — a city with centuries of blade-making tradition — this is the larger of the two chef's knives in the series. At 210mm the blade handles most tasks a serious cook will ask of it.
The round bar handle looks sharp but fits the hand naturally. All stainless steel construction means no rusting and straightforward care. The blade is three-layer: corrosion-resistant stainless steel on both faces with high-carbon molybdenum vanadium steel at the core, marked at the edge by a ripple pattern where the layers meet. Sharp, durable, and resharpenable — a whetstone is recommended over a sharpener where possible.
Made in Japan.
