When it comes to professional culinary knives, the Japanese Brieto knives are in a class of their own. Their seamless construction makes them extremely hygienic and easy to care for, also suitable for gastronomy. The ergonomically designed handles can be held comfortably and securely even when wet because of their brushed, hammered surface. Brieto knives are astonishingly light and therefore reduce wrist and hand fatigue when undertaking repetitive cutting. The knife’s stainless steel handle instantly takes on body temperature and feels like the natural extension of your hand. The blade is made from stainless AUS-6M Mono Steel*. The cryogenic hardening process applied to these knives makes the steel exceptionally fine-grained, resulting in an extremely sharp and durable blade. Handle made of stainless steel 18/8**. Hardness 58 HRC, double-bevelled.* Steel analysis: C = 0.6 / Cr = 14 / Mo = 0.2 / V = 0.2 (in %)
