The Kai Michel Bras Quotidien n°2 M Japaneseparing knife makes it easy to do all your everyday cutting!
Michel Bras is a famous chef, whose restaurant boasts three Michelin stars, and whose "creative" cuisine is even exported to Japan, in a prestigious restaurant on the island of Hokkaido. The collaboration between the chef and Japanese manufacturer Kai was a natural one: the aim was to design reliable, efficient Utensils.
The Michel Bras Quotidien range of kitchen knives comprises 3 models, which, as their name suggests, are perfect for everyday use.
This Quotidien n°2 (M)paring knife features a blade made from AUS-8A stainless steel, an alloy with a chromium content of around 14.5% (perfect for resistance to oxidation) and a carbon content of around 0.8% (for good blade hardness). All in all, its strength index reaches 58/59 HRC on the Rockwell scale, a good compromise between edge retention and ease of resharpening. This confirms its suitability for everyday use.
The steel then benefits from a titanium coating, which not only protects it, but also enhances its non-stick properties. The dark appearance of the titanium adds originality to the piece.
For a perfect finish, you can distinguish the brand name that has been affixed to the cutting surface, as well as the words "Made in Japan", a guarantee of quality. The name of the Michelin-starred chef also appears on the blade. Also visible on the back of the blade is a cistre leaf (a plant that grows on the Aubrac plateaus), emblematic of Michel Bras' creative cuisine.
The handle is made of Pakkawood, a composite material much appreciated in the kitchen for its longevity and robustness. It is made from laminated wood and resin, all hot-pressed together. The result resembles natural wood in its fine grain. Pakkawood is not only antibacterial, but also resistant to changes in temperature and humidity (it is said to be rot-proof). It is completed by 2 rivets that hold the various parts of the knife together.
How to care for the knife :
The knife should be washed by hand, then wiped dry and stored in a dry place. Never put the knife in the dishwasher.
Choose this large, visual and high-performance paring knife to help you cut your fruit and vegetables!
