This knife belongs to Shimomura Kogyo's Pro Grade series, which brings the cutting feel and functionality of professional kitchen tools into an easy to use, everyday knife. It is an all stainless knife, with a blade made from stainless cutlery steel to which molybdenum and vanadium have been added for an edge that holds its sharpness longer.
The blade is ground to a sharp edge that bites cleanly into food for a comfortable, pleasant cutting feel. The blade and handle are formed as one piece with no seam between them, so dirt does not collect at the joint and the knife is easy to keep clean. The handle shape is comfortable to hold and lets you apply force easily.
This knife is dishwasher safe and made in Japan.
Choose from five knife types: Santoku, Chef Knife (Gyuto), Small Santoku, Petty Knife, and Bread Knife.
