Wusaki knives

The Wusaki knife: pure performance

The Wusaki knife is a concentrate of efficiency: all the materials used in its manufacture have been carefully selected to meet the needs of all cooks. The two main steels used in the design of the blades are VG10 and X50CrMoV15. The former is a top-of-the-range Japanese steel renowned in the kitchen, notably for its hardness and the durability of its cutting edge (because it contains 1% carbon, sharpening sessions are more frequent). Its pronounced hardness also enables it to be sharpened to a razor-sharp edge. The second is a German steel of equally high quality, much used by the cutlery makers of Solingen (Germany's knife capital). Both have the advantage of good solidity and a marked cutting quality. Wusaki also offers damascus knives, in which layers of hard and soft steels are superimposed on the blade core to achieve the perfect compromise between hardness and suppleness. Long handles, even on the smallest models, have been designed to fit the hands of even the most experienced cooks (because it's true that some knives have an unbalanced handle/blade ratio, making them unpleasant to hold). Made from wood or composite materials, their grip is highly intuitive and their shape provides excellent control and a firm hold. It's worth noting that Wusaki knives are available in small quantities due to the time it takes to manufacture them and the care taken with each piece (which makes them even more exceptional). For sharpening, you can opt for Wusaki whetstones, which offer a wide range of grit to give the edge an impeccable finish.
