[General Features]
The special version of ZANGETSU has 480mm & 450mm mirrored blades, longer than any other kichen knife in the world (except tuna-kiri). The arched-shape chef knife series is forged and sharpened carefully one by one by skillful craftsmen in Sakai.
This Ginsan or Silver paper (Gingami) No.3 Steel knives are made of fine Japanese Steel Company Hitachi's Special Stainless Steel which makes similar sharpness, edge retention as Carbon Steel.
Sharpness, Soft usage feeling and Unparalleled durability with Rust-resistance supported by the experience through long history.
The blade shows its stylish arched shape, recreating the element of the traditional Japanese swords.
Speaking to the special Wenge Wood handle, the Japanese-Style Octagonal figure fits better comfortably to your hand. The Double Buffalo Rings equipped to the handle represent high-quality and excellent durability, that means made for professional originally. (Please be noted that the buffalo Ring (guard) is a natural product that may possibly be different from the image in color.)
We recommend this high-class kitchen knife series for professional chefs to enhance their art of cooking as well as for Perfect Gift.

*** The images in this page are of the sample products. Color, weight, pattern and size may differ because each product is handmade.
*** Please be noted that it may take a few months to restock if the item should not be available, because this series is made-to-order by skilled blacksmiths.
*** The blade surface is protected with silicon oil or vinyl-coating to prevent rust and scratches, which sometimes looks a kind of fouling but never affect the blade itself. Please remove the protective-surface coating before use.
