A perfect fusion of tradition and technology, this 7-inch vegetable knife, designed especially for Asian cuisine lovers, is manufactured with vacuum heat-treated Japanese stainless steel to ensure outstanding durability. Thanks to its scalpel-like 13-15 degree edge, it cuts with minimal resistance, making it perfect for mincing, slicing, and dicing large vegetables, meat, fish, and more with meticulously exact precision. The 440C steel’s 59-60 Rockwell hardness provides unrivaled performance, superior corrosion resistance, and exceptional edge retention. The durable rosewood handle is impervious to heat, cold, rust, and moisture while also boasting great comfort and perfect balance, preventing fatigue and cramp even when handling reunions, housewarmings, showers, and more. No detail is amiss, with a touch of elegance from the unique mosaic pin in the center of the handle. This beautiful piece of kitchen equipment comes complete with its own sheath and case to preserve and store it with care.

I appreciate and respect this knife. It is well balanced, deep enough to keep the knuckles off the board, hard and strong. I am very pleased with it every time I use it.

It has been very good. However the knife is much heavier than I thought it would be.
