Fukito knives are made in the Guangdong province of Western China. For decades, this place has been historically linked to knife production. Each Fukito knife is designed using techniques and materials that meet the manufacturing standards of French professionals in the agri-food sector.
This Fukito Ebène X50Bread knife features a serrated cutting surface, ideal for cutting bread efficiently and effortlessly. Thanks to its teeth, which penetrate the bread crust with ease, you'll get nice, even slices without the risk of crushing the bread. Also useful for brioches, sponge cakes...
Blade :
Made of German X50CrMov15 stainless steel. This steel is highly appreciated in professional circles for its many advantages. Among them, its high chromium content (15%) makes it highly resistant to corrosion. Its vanadium content counterbalances its carbon content, adding "suppleness" and making it less brittle. Last but not least, we'd like to mention its excellent durability/sharpness and quality/price ratios.
This blade has been vacuum heat-treated. This process is advantageous because, in the case of standard heat treatment, certain elements present in the air (hydrogen, oxygen...) can react with the metal, even during tempering, and this can have an impact on the blade. In this case, heat treatment took place in a protected atmosphere without any elements, so the blade could be treated in the best possible way to retain its full potential.
A stainless steel Bolster links the blade to the handle. Its gently sloping surface makes for an easy, natural grip.
Finally, the blade has a satin finish.
The handle :
The handle is made from a beautiful dark ebony wood. Often considered precious, it is highly resistant to repeated use and humidity. Hand-polished, it offers a soft, pleasant feel for comfortable, long-lasting use. Wood is a living material, so each handle is unique. In fact, the veins and grain will differ from one piece to another!
Blade and handle are joined together by 3 rivets to hold all materials together. To add a unique and original touch, the central rivet features an attractive copper mosaic that contrasts beautifully with the ebony.
A stainless steel cap finishes the handle and balances the knife's weight. The handle is suitable for both right-handed and left-handed users.
Fukito knives are delivered in an attractive magnetic gift box. You can also store it in the box once you've used it.
Care :
We recommend hand-washing with a sponge and mild detergent. Once the knife is clean, wipe it dry immediately to remove all traces of moisture and store it. Do not use the dishwasher or soak the knife in the sink.
