Description

A Japanese chef' s knife with a remarkable cutting edge

The 21 cm Masakage Mizu chef's knife is a masterpiece of Japanese craftsmanship, hand-forged by Takumi Ikeda at Takefu Knife Village. This versatile gyuto knife embodies all the finesse of Japanese craftsmanship! It features high-quality materials, traditional aesthetics and excellent cutting precision!

The handcrafted Japanese knife with Aogami #2 steel blade

The 21 cm blade features a San Maï structure (a rigid steel core surrounded by 2 layers of softer iron), with a core of Aogami #2 steel, renowned for its ability to maintain a sharp edge over a long period of time. With its high carbon content of 1.2%, it guarantees a hardness of 62HRC on the Rockwell scale, for precise, efficient cutting over time. The rough forged finish gives it an authentic look, and its blue reflections echo the name of the Masakage Mizu range, which means "water".

Cherry wood handle: comfort and elegance for this handcrafted knife

The handle of this Japanese kitchen knife is made from cherry wood, offering a comfortable, natural grip. The gray resin bolster adds a touch of elegance and ensures a smooth transition between blade and handle. The practical oval shape of the handle is suitable for both right- and left-handed users!

Features and benefits of this Japanese gyuto knife

  • Aogami #2 steel blade: highly durable, easy-to-sharpen cutting edge
  • San Maï structure: combination of hardness and flexibility
  • Rough forged finish: traditional Japanese aesthetic
  • Cherry wood handle: comfortable, natural grip
  • Oval shape: ambidextrous use
  • Handcrafted at Takefu Knife Village: authentic Japanese know-how

To preserve the quality of your carbon knife, we recommend washing it only by hand in lukewarm water and drying it immediately after use. Avoid cutting frozen foods or bones, to prevent any risk of chipping. Do not leave to soak in the sink, and do not put in the dishwasher.
