A versatile all-purpose knife for everyday cuts
The 13 cm Misono 440 utility knife is particularly appreciated for its versatility. Its intermediate size allows you to work with precision while maintaining good cutting capacity on a wide variety of foods. It is equally suited to fruit and vegetables, as well as boneless meats, while remaining handy and easy to control.
440C stainless steel blade for long-lasting sharpness
The blade is made of 440C stainless steel, enriched with chromium and molybdenum to enhance its resistance to oxidation, for standard use and maintenance. With a hardness of around 58 to 59 HRC on the Rockwell scale, the cutting edge retains its effectiveness over time. The asymmetrical cutting geometry, without being one-sided, favors clean penetration and precise cutting, without damaging flesh or crushing fibers. Brand and range markings are affixed to the blade for a meticulous finish.
It should be noted that, due to its chromium-rich composition, sharpening may take a little longer than with simpler steels, but this technical choice provides better corrosion resistance, much appreciated in professional kitchens.
A Pakkawood handle designed for comfort and hygiene
The black Pakkawood handle combines the sober look of a woody material with the strength of a composite. Resistant to humidity, temperature variations and shocks, it is perfectly suited to repeated use. It's pleasant to hold, and the slightly recessed shape of the base helps maintain a controlled gesture for both right- and left-handed users.
The full tang blade is securely held by stainless steel rivets, and the stainless steel bolster ensures a smooth transition between blade and handle. It also contributes to the knife's overall balance, for a stable, reassuring feel when cutting.
Recommended care to preserve performance
Even though this knife is designed for intensive use, hand-washing is recommended to preserve cutting quality and the general condition of the materials. Clean with a soft sponge and washing-up liquid, dry immediately after washing, then store away from moisture and shock, in a block, a case or on a magnetic bar.
