Japanese knives (Hōchō 包丁) have a cult following by chefs and passionate cooks around the world. With their world-renowned reputation for outstanding and artisanal craftsmanship, you may also be dreaming of owning one or two yourselves!

Whether you cook Japanese cuisine or not, a beautifully crafted knife can make all the difference in your chopping skills and the final dish!

Japanese knives are traditionally made with a type of carbon steel called Hagane (鋼). The blades are forged in multiple layers, with a brittle carbon steel core and an iron steel outer layer. This combination results in an extremely sharp edge, similar to a Japanese Samurai sword.

The Wasabi Black Series can trace its origins to Japanese communal kitchens. Thanks to a successful combination of enduring functionality and sharpness, robust material quality, and a minimalistic design, the numerous blades of the series are intended for uncomplicated and continuous use and convince with an impressive price-to-performance ratio. Lastly, the series owes its easy-care handling to the water-resistant plastic handle - the pleasant feel of which has been achieved through the addition of bamboo powder. The matte black handle and highly-polish stainless steel blade fashioned from 1K6 steel are permanently moulded together, ruling out the accumulation of dirt.

The essential knife in a Chef’s collection; also known as a Cook’s knife was initially designed and used to disjoint massive cuts of beef. The cook’s knife, today, is the multi-functioning and versatile food preparation knife in the kitchen, the ultimate utility knife.
