Misono UX10 27cm Japanese sujihiki knife

The Misono UX10 27cm Japanese sujihiki knife ensures efficient, precise cutting of all your large cuts of meat, as well as large fruits like pineapple!

The blade of this knife is made from a Swedish stainless steel alloy, making it highly resistant to the effects of corrosion. Another advantage of this steel is its durability. The knives in the UX10 range have the longest-lasting cutting edge of all the brand's knives.

In terms of hardness, the knife boasts 59/60 HRC on the Rockwell scale. You'll retain a good edge after many uses, and the cutting edge remains easy to sharpen. It is preferable to use a Sharpening stone on this type of knife.

This knife has an asymmetrical cutting angle, without being one-sided. This makes it easier for the blade to penetrate the food for a clean, delicate cut without damaging the flesh.

The handle is ergonomically shaped for long-lasting ease of use. The material used to manufacture the handle is pakkawood. This is a blend of resin and wood, highly appreciated in professional kitchens for its lightness and resistance to shock and humidity. You benefit from an aesthetic appearance slightly similar to wood grain and the strength of a synthetic material.

The shape of its base is slightly curved for controlled handling.

Three rivets and a nickel silver bolster complete the handle assembly. Maillechort is an alloy of copper, nickel and zinc, particularly appreciated for its resistance to corrosion. The rivets hold the full tang blade in place (it extends along the length of the handle) and the weight of the bolster balances the entire knife.

Last but not least, the knife's authentic, uncluttered design will appeal to any cook!

As for care, this knife is best cleaned with a soft sponge and washing-up liquid. Hand-cleaning will ensure that it retains all its splendor and efficiency. After washing, wipe dry immediately and store away from shock and moisture.
