KATSUHIRO Japanese knives

*** The ultimate cutting tools: Powder-Metallurgic Steel Kitchen Knives
The Japanese master blacksmith Kazuyuki Tanaka processes one of the the hardest blade steel of the world* for his unique kitchen knives. They are characterised not only by their phenomenal sharpness and durability, but also by the fascinating pattern of the 65-layer blade (32 layers on eache face + cutting edge of SG-2 steel), hardness 63°. These masterpieces are finished with handles made of waterproof ironwood, the densest wood in the world, mounted with a nickel silver ferrule. The pinning of the handle scales with rosette-shaped mosaic pins makes the knives real eye-catchers. Despite their top-rate cutting performance, P-M knives are hardwearing due to their rustproof blades, bevelled on both sides, and waterproof handles, making them the first choice among professional chefs.
