Choose Japanese performance and exacting standards with this sujihiki knife with granton edge27cm with granton edgeblade!
This knife is part of the UX10 series. This range of efficient, long-lasting knives is particularly appreciated by chefs the world over.
The long, narrow 27cm blade of this Japanese carving knife enables you to slice large cuts of meat, legs of lamb, poultry, roasts and hams, as well as large fruits and vegetables such as pineapples. It's precise enough to cut your meats, whether cooked or raw.
Its honeycomb design means that food doesn't stick to the steel as much, thanks to the air bubbles created in the hollows. So you can cut quickly, precisely and safely.
The blade is made of Swedish stainless steel, highly resistant to the effects of corrosion. This alloy also ensures that the knife stays sharp for a long time. UX10 is the range with the longest-lasting cutting edge of all knives.
Hardness is rated at 59/60 HRC on the Rockwell scale. This provides a good balance between edge endurance and ease of sharpening. Whenever you feel the need, use a Sharpening stone to give your blade a boost!
This knife features an asymmetrical cutting angle. This allows you to slice flesh cleanly and efficiently without damaging its appearance.
The handle is ergonomically designed for comfortable, long-lasting use. It is made of pakkawood, a blend of resin and wood highly appreciated in professional kitchens for its lightness and resistance to shock and humidity. It is also anti-bacterial, making it ideal for use in the kitchen.
The slightly curved shape of its base allows controlled, comfortable use.
Three rivets and a nickel-silver bolster complete the handle assembly. Maillechort is an alloy of copper, nickel and zinc used for its resistance to corrosion. The rivets hold the blade in place (i.e., it extends along the handle) and the weight of the bolster balances the whole knife.
The knife's authentic, uncluttered design adds character.
Care and maintenance:
This knife requires a few care precautions. Firstly, although it is suitable for professional use, it should not be put in the dishwasher. Wash the knife by hand with a soft sponge and suitable washing-up liquid. Then dry the knife immediately with a dry cloth before storing it carefully.
