The Takayuki knife company has existed in one form or another for 600 years, and that depth of experience has shaped a modern company intent on combining new technologies and methods with this ancient art. This honesuki is made with top-quality Bohler N690 stainless steel, and because it is a mono steel blade with no cladding of other steels, the knife offers superior stainless properties and the ease of maintenance many chefs appreciate.
The blade design is asymmetric, making it best suited for right-handed use. This knife dispatches poultry and other smaller boned items with ease and efficiency, representing a great alternative for cooks who want a true Japanese-style honesuki that is easy to use and maintain. Note that the standard CKTG honesuki sayas do not fit this knife; a blade guard is the better storage option.
Care Instructions: Bohler N690 is a fully stainless steel - hand wash and dry after each use. Avoid the dishwasher. Sharpen on quality water stones and strop regularly between sharpenings.
