KITCHEN KNIVES

Traditional Japanese kitchen knives from the Satake Yoshimitsu series are made of carbon steel SK-5 with a hardness of HRC-62. Thanks to it, the constant sharpness of the blade is maintained for a long time. The handle of these knives is octagonal in shape, made of traditional magnolia wood and reinforced with a plastic ring. The low weight of the knife means that your hand does not get tired even when working for a long time. It is an excellent choice for people who value Japanese minimalism and traditions in the kitchen, expressed by excellent knife characteristics.

Note that steel with high carbon chemistry requires more daily maintenance than regular stainless steel. In humid or acidic environments, it quickly acquires a patina and then rusts. The main principle of maintaining such steels is to wash the knife under running water after use and wipe it dry with a cloth, and if you are not going to use it for a long time, it is better to lubricate it with oil.

• The total length of the knife is 30 cm.
• Blade length 17 cm.
• Blade width 4.5 cm.
• Thickness 2.3 mm.
• The weight of the knife is 110 g.
