The kit is ideal for chefs who are always on the go or who simply want a convenient and safe way to carry up to 6 knives and a sharpening steel.
The 15-degree sharpening angle (compared to 20 to 25 degrees for an ordinary knife) will allow you to slice and mince without ever crushing even the most delicate ingredients, so that they retain all their flavor.
All KOTAI knives are forged from 440C steel, a superior quality steel that combines a high carbon content for edge hardness and longevity with the optimal amount of chromium to prevent oxidation.
The hidden full tang – a single piece of steel running from the tip of the blade to the end of the handle – gives the knives ideal balance and exceptional durability.
Beyond the aesthetic appeal, the hammering of the “Tsuchime” (槌目) blade creates small air pockets between the blade and the slices of food.
This ancient Japanese method prevents food from sticking to the blade for a pleasant and quick cutting experience.
Composition: 440C steel blade, black pakkawood handle, stainless steel barrel, bamboo box, cardboard box, bamboo saya, cotton pouch
Care instructions: Do not use on hard surfaces (metal, ceramic, marble). Use wooden or plastic cutting boards. Do not cut bones or frozen food. Hand wash and dry promptly after each use. Do not clean in the dishwasher or leave in a damp sink.
