Chef Knife

Santoku Knife
A balanced Japanese-style multipurpose knife designed for slicing, dicing, and controlled downward chopping. Its broad blade and manageable shape make it a strong everyday choice for vegetables, fruit, fish, and boneless meat.
Nakiri Knife
A vegetable-focused knife with a broad, straight-edged blade designed for clean downward cuts. It is particularly useful for chopping, slicing, and dicing vegetables, leafy greens, herbs, and fruit.

9Cr18MoV Steel for Everyday Performance
The blade is made from 9Cr18MoV steel and is described by the supplier as undergoing high-temperature vacuum treatment and deep-cold treatment. This process is intended to support edge retention, flexibility, corrosion resistance, and cutting performance.
The supplier lists a Rockwell hardness of 60 or higher. Proper use, cleaning, storage, and sharpening remain important for maintaining the blade.
Distinctive Hammered Finish
The hammered surface gives the blade a handcrafted, textured appearance. The uneven surface can also reduce the amount of contact between the blade and certain ingredients, helping food release more easily during preparation.
Octagonal African Rosewood Handle
The Japanese-style octagonal handle is made from African rosewood. Its defined sides help provide control and orientation while cutting, while the natural wood grain gives every knife a warm, distinctive appearance.
As with all natural wood products, colour and grain may vary slightly from one handle to another.
Designed for Controlled Cutting
The handle is lightweight, allowing more of the knife’s weight to remain toward the blade. This blade-forward balance can provide greater control during chopping, slicing, and other food-preparation tasks.
