Misono UX10, the iconic professional range from the Japanese brand
The Misono UX10 range represents the highest level of performance offered by the Japanese brand Misono. Designed to meet the demands of professional kitchens, it is aimed at both experienced chefs and enthusiasts looking for a reliable, precise and durable knife. This series includes numerous models covering all cutting techniques, whether for meat, fish, vegetables or herbs.
Misono UX10 knives are distinguished above all by their Swedish stainless steel blade. This alloy is renowned for its high resistance to corrosion and the exceptional durability of its cutting edge. In fact, within the Misono brand, the UX10 range offers the longest-lasting cutting edge. Its hardness, between 59 and 60 HRC on the Rockwell scale, ensures long-lasting cutting efficiency while remaining easy to sharpen - an essential criterion in the professional environment.
An ideal balance between cutting performance and ease of maintenance
The steel used for Misono UX10 knives has been selected to guarantee an excellent compromise between rigidity, cutting finesse and simplified maintenance. Even after many uses, the cutting edge remains powerful and can be quickly restored with a whetstone. This feature makes the UX10 range a preferred choice for chefs working at high speeds.
The design of the blade, combined with a precise cutting angle, ensures clean, food-friendly cuts. Flesh is preserved, fibers are not crushed, and the gesture remains fluid, whatever the nature of the ingredient being worked on.
A Western handle designed for long-lasting comfort
Misono UX10 knives feature a black Pakkawood handle, a composite material renowned for its resistance to moisture, shock and temperature variations. Lightweight and pleasant to hold, it offers a comfortable grip even during prolonged use. Its Western shape allows immediate adaptation to both right-handed and left-handed users.
The full tang blade is securely held by three rivets and a nickel silver bolster. This alloy of copper, nickel and zinc is prized for its strength and resistance to corrosion. It also brings optimal balance to the knife, improving precision and stability when cutting.

The Misono UX10 range comes in a number of models adapted to each specific use. Gyuto, Santoku, Sujihiki, Honesuki and specialized meat and fish knives enable every cook to put together a coherent set of knives perfectly suited to his or her way of working.
