Handcrafted Japanese Chef Knives

Japanese Chef knives are double-bevel. These knives are sharpened and ground on both sides of the blade. Handcrafted Japanese chef's knives have a very thin, sharp cutting edge. Therefore, they cannot be used on bones or frozen foods. We recommend washing Japanese chef knives only by hand so that they retain their excellent properties longer.
