Masutani knives are handcrafted on Japan's Echizen coast. They embody quality craftsmanship inherited from the generations of Japanese blacksmiths who designed the legendary samurai swords. Japan, the cradle of cutlery traditions, offers top-quality Japanese knives that are a wise investment for any kitchen enthusiast!
In their workshop, Masutani and his team handcraft each Japanese kitchen knife. Each piece is carefully crafted before being presented in beautiful boxes, making them an ideal gift for cooking enthusiasts or chefs.
This Japanese chef's knife features a damascened blade, the result of a technique in which a rigid steel core is forged and then enveloped in several layers of softer steel. This method aims to balance the blade's suppleness while preserving its core.
The core of this blade is made of Japanese VG10 steel, a renowned alloy manufactured by the renowned Takefu Special Steel. With a carbon content of around 1%, this alloy offers increased hardness. As a result, the blade's hardness reaches 60HRC on the Rockwell scale, ensuring excellent edge retention and optimum cutting performance.
To guarantee maximum efficiency, the cutting edge of this handcrafted Japanese knife is honed by hand using several sharpening stones. What's more, when it does need sharpening, this damask knife remains relatively easy to maintain with a stone.
The damascus pattern is complemented by several layers of softer steel, which provide protection and give flexibility to the core of the blade. In addition to its functionality, the damascus pattern also offers an undeniable visual advantage! The superimposition of the different layers is visible across the entire blade surface, creating a unique damask pattern that lends character to your Japanese kitchen knife.
This handcrafted knife features a refined nashiji finish. What's more, kanjis are engraved on the blade for an extra touch of authenticity!
The handle of your handcrafted Japanese knife is made of black pakka wood, a material renowned for its strength and durability. This composite material, derived from resin and laminated wood, is heated to achieve high strength while retaining the natural look of wood thanks to its distinctive grain.
With its Western shape, this handle is suitable for both right- and left-handed users! It offers an ergonomic grip for precise handling, ideal for prolonged use.
Last but not least, the handle is fitted with a stainless steel bolster and two stainless steel rivets to secure the blade. The result is a reliable, durable kitchen knife designed to last the test of time!
To care for your damask knife, you should only clean it by hand with a soft sponge. Once washed, it should be wiped dry immediately to remove all traces of moisture and stored in a dry place. Do not use the dishwasher or leave it to soak in the sink.
