Shimomura TU-9000 knives are made in Japan. Shimomura was founded in 1874, specializing in the manufacture of agricultural tools. In 1957, it was among the first to enter the new field of stainless steel knives. It uses its know-how and high-precision technology to create knives for both private and professional use.
The 12.5cm utility knife is perfect for cutting fruit and vegetables, and boneless cuts of meat. Its small size makes it an excellent all-round knife for everyday use!
Made from stainless steel, the blade is enriched with molybdenum for strength and corrosion resistance, and vanadium for enhanced strength and impact resistance. The result is a robust blade with an HRC hardness of 56/58 on the Rockwell scale. Such hardness ensures long-lasting edge retention and ease of use with a Sharpening stone.
To guarantee optimum use from the very first cut, the blade has been sharpened with a Sharpening stone by a qualified craftsman.
The handle is made of laminated wood, a material that is light to the touch. The handle has a perfectly ergonomic shape and is suitable for both right- and left-handed cooks. What's more, it's easy to care for! The handle is complemented by 2 rivets and a stainless steel bolster. The rivets secure the handle to the blade, while the bolster adds balance and strength to the knife. Finally, the handle is black: an elegant, all-purpose color!
We recommend washing the knife by hand under running water with a neutral soap, then wiping it with a soft cloth before storing it in a dry place. It's best not to apply too much pressure to the handle under water, as this could cause the wood to warp. Careful maintenance will keep your knife looking as good as new.
Give the gift of this universal knife: it comes in a beautiful golden cardboard box!
