Shirakaba Hocho, Nakiri - Usuba (Vegetable Knife)

Description

Japanese forging art with finest steel quality and perfect handle material

Each knife is unique. These knives combine two high-quality materials. The varied natural texture of the birch bark handle and the vividly patterned blade of 15-layered Damascus steel make the perfect match. The birch bark handle not only impresses with its pleasant, velvety-warm feel, but also with its unique technical properties. As an extremely durable natural material with high stability yet with a low weight, it is water-repellent, extremely dimensionally stable and non-slip even when wet. Its antibacterial property, produced by the constituents of the birch bark, is particularly important in the kitchen. The cutting layer of the 15-layered Damascus blade is made of White Paper Steel and has a hardness of 61 HRC. Not rustproof, double bevel.
Birch bark handle (bm1)
Each product made of bm1 is unique. Made from numerous individual layers of birch bark, this is a vivid material whose colour, growth pattern and texture vary greatly. A patented manufacturing process tailored to the material characteristics of birch bark allows high stability at a low weight. Compared to other natural materials, bm1 keeps its shape extremely well, especially when exposed to moisture.
