This 23cmBread knifehas a serrated cutting surface. This serration is necessary to easily cut your various types of bread. The blade can cut through the crust (the hardest part) and the crumb (the most delicate part) without damaging or crushing the bread. It is also effective on brioches, entremets...
Blade construction :
The blade has a core of SG2 steel, a special high-density powder that allows it to incorporate more mixed particles into its alloy. This gives it a high degree of hardness, which enhances its cutting qualities (as the wire is harder, sharpening can be pushed further, as the steel can withstand it).
It is also more resistant to humidity than VG10, which is already very good in its field and renowned in the cutlery world.
Next, the SG2 core is protected by 160 superimposed layers of hard and soft steel (80 on each side + the core, which is counted). Thanks to this assembly of strata, the knife blade offers the perfect combination of hardness and slight suppleness, reaching 63 HRC on the Rockwell scale. As a result, the cutting edge stays sharper for longer, saving you time on sharpening sessions.
Finishes :
The knife's cutting edge is angled at 30° (i.e. 15° on each side), whereas the standard angle for a Japanese knife is approximately 34°. The result is a razor-sharp edge.
The blade is engraved by hand by a master cutler. He uses a punch to shape the characters, then taps with a small hammer. His expertise adds an extra touch of authenticity to the knife.
Handle construction :
The handle is made of canvas micarta, a material composed of 40% resin and 60% linen. It is resistant to temperature variations. It is also highly resistant to moisture. This special material has been approved by the FDA , making it suitable for professional use. It is completed by 3 rivets, for optimum hold.
