Professional Chefs Knives (japanese)?
I want to buy some of the professional chefs knives, they are all made from one piece of metal and they have a sort of serrated edge carved onto the side of the knives i know that they are japanese. They do not have a handle made of another material. I have tried to google them but i can’t find the name so it’s bringing all the nippon ones up and the sabatier which aren’t the correct ones. Does anyone know that name of the ones that i have described??
Well I’m a chef and I’d swear by using Global Knives. They are Japanese knives which are handcrafted by Japanese swordsmith Yoshikin in his factory in Niigata, Japan. The blades utilise CROMOVA 18 stainless steel and are ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56° – 58° which holds a razor sharp edge longer than any other steel and resists rust, stains and corrosion. They also have perfectly weighted and balanced hollow handles which make them lighter and easier to use.
**One thing to be aware of though is that Global Knives should not be sharpened with a traditional ’steel’. For best results a whetstone should be used.**
