DESCRIPTION

Sword making history in Japan dates back over 1,000 years, when master swordsmiths practiced their craft making weapons for warriors. Modern Japanese kitchen knives are a descendant of these renowned swords, as evidenced in the details, ideals, and spirit that have been passed down through generations that go into each tool. This particular knife has a banno shape. Shaped similarly as a santoku knife, a banno knife is closest to what would be considered in Japan as a chef's knife. It is very capable as an all-purpose knife for meat, fish, and vegetables. The use of carbon steel ensures that the knife holds a very sharp edge, while the outer sandwich of stainless steel prevents rust and damage.
