Sakai Takayuki Grand Chef SP Chef's Knife, 210mm / 8.25"

3 items left

An excellent choice as the main all-around knife for home or professional use. This size just feels great and balanced and easy to hold and handle. It's the idea size for home use, and many pros are now using 8" knives too, so it's not out of the question for a working chef or culinary school student. The handle is just the right size for the blade and the fit and finish are excellent, making this a fantastic value for someone looking for a quality Japanese made knife with high quality steel and those cool square dimples (granton edge) which help reduce resistance, allowing you to get extra thin slices.

All Grand Chef series knives are made from high quality Bohler N685 stainless steel. This is a martensitic chromium stainless steel with added molybdenum and vanadium, which results in high hardness and good wear resistance, with excellent corrosion resistance -- an ideal steel for durable and sharp kitchen knives! Grand Chef blades are hard and tough with long lasting edges. HRC approx. 59-60 for sharpness and ease of maintenance and sharpening.

This is a super-sharp knife that will be sure to offer years of pleasure in the kitchen.

Note: dimples are only on the one (front) side.
Approx. weight: approx. 179g Comes in a very nice box.

I'd recommend the Idahone fine ceramic hone for regular/daily maintenance of the edge. As with any knife, use the hone regularly and you'll keep the edge in good shape for a long time.
NOTE: This knife is sharpened mostly on the right side, which means it's not really suitable for left-handed use.
