Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Thick at the back, the broad, 7-3/5-inch blade on this professional-quality Japanese knife for butchering fish and chopping hard vegetables carries enough weight to chop through fish bones. The shape, weight, and wood handle--which has a ridge to ensure a secure grip--are traditional, but the blade is made of thoroughly modern, extra-hard, molybdenum/vanadium stainless steel so it retains its edge longer than high-carbon stainless-steel blades. For clean, low-friction cutting, the edge is "face-ground" on the right side only with a long taper at an acute angle and comes from the factory razor-sharp. This knife should be honed only with a synthetic whetstone or a ceramic whetstone and hand washed. --Fred Brack
