This kitchen knife set includes four specialized knives (an 8" Kiritsuke knife, an 8" Gyutou knife, a 7" Santoku knife, and a 7" Nakiri knife). Designed for versatility in the kitchen, it handles tasks such as slicing, chopping, dicing, mincing, and cutting through tough vegetables, thick meats, cartilage, fish, and fruit. The blades are hand-polished to a sharp 15~17-degree edge, ensuring effortless cutting, while the sleek hammered appearance and black coating prevent ingredients from sticking. Constructed with a durable, slip-resistant wooden handle for a comfortable and secure grip, the high-carbon steel blades are tough, wear-resistant, and easy to maintain. Ideal for both kitchen use and outdoor activities like camping and hiking, this set comes in a portable storage bag. Hand washing is recommended to preserve the knives' quality, making it a perfect gift for occasions such as Thanksgiving, weddings, birthdays, Christmas, housewarmings, and anniversaries. Upon first use, wash off the protective oil with detergent and dry thoroughly.
