Utility knife 12cm Kutoyama damas Azur

A kitchen knife for everyday use

The Universal knife is a multi-purpose model! Its small blade is ideal for precision cutting of fruits and vegetables, for example. Just be careful not to use it on hard foods such as squash or frozen foods.

This Universal knife features a damascened blade with a rigid steel core, wrapped in 66 layers of stainless steel. The blade is polished for a mirror-like effect and features a distinctive damask pattern.

The core of the blade is made of VG10 steel, an alloy containing around 1% carbon. This element increases the blade's hardness, reaching 60HRC on the Rockwell scale. In addition, VG10 steel is enriched with chromium and molybdenum for enhanced corrosion resistance.

Thanks to this hardness, the cutting edge can be maintained with a Sharpening stone or, more regularly, with a Sharpening steel.

The Kutoyama knife with an original handle

The handle of this damask knife is made of resin, a durable and resistant material. The blue resin matches the light-colored wood at the base of the handle. A black and yellow ring between bolster and handle adds a distinctive touch of color. The stainless steel bolster and base complete the look of your kitchen knife.

The almost oval handle adapts equally well to the hands of right- and left-handed cooks, offering an ergonomic grip even during prolonged use in the kitchen.

Made in China, this kitchen knife is presented in a gift box.

To care for your Kutoyama knife, wash by hand only and dry immediately before storing in a dry place. Do not put in the dishwasher or soak in the sink.
