This is 170mm, and it is used for most tasks in the kitchen and is particularly good for slicing and chopping tasks in both meat and vegetables. The cutting experience of this knife is poor in words, so it is a knife that must be tested to that extent. If you have the opportunity to drop by our store in Torvehallerne in Copenhagen, we will therefore be ready with carrots and a cutting board, so that you will be able to experience for yourself why this knife is so much better than most others out there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eOne aspect of knife forging that Konosuke masters particularly well is the ability to make the blades wedge-shaped all the way from the heel to the tip. This makes the blade very thin, which combined with the sharpness makes the knife slide easily when cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTechnically, the blade consists of three layers of steel - two soft layers around a core of semi-stainless steel. The core is a fantastic steel, as it combines carbon steel's ability to get a particularly fine edge, but at the same time is relatively rust-resistant. The reason for this is that the core is a \"pure\" stainless alloy, simply put. The main constituents of the alloy are iron and carbon, but a little more chromium is also added than there is in e.g. aogami and this is what gives the resistance to rust. When we write that it is a pure alloy, it is because, like other stainless knives, it does not contain a lot of other alloy elements such as nickel, and that is what makes the core able to have such a fine edge.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA saya in magnolia wood is included for storing the knife.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003ePhoto: Kasper Holm Jensen \/ \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/kasperholmjensen\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e@kasperholmjensen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"scrollable-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Santoku\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e 170 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Forging and steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e 3 layers, core not disclosed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Grinding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Double-edged\/standard\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHandle type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Octagonal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Stainless steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Yes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Hardness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e 61-62 HRC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Stock material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Chestnut tree\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Saya\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Yes - wood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e 100 grams\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFoodgear always advises against cutting all kinds of bones and frozen goods.
