Classic chef’s knife from Kiya for both professional and private kitchens. The steel has high carbon content, which means that it will hold its edge for a long time and is easy to resharpen. The blade is not stainless, so it will develop a nice patina as you use it, ranging from blue, grey and brown.
This second-hand knife has been restored: the blade is thinned and polished. The edge is resharpened using a series of Japanese whetstones, with a 4000 grit finish. It is ready to use right away!
The pakkawood handle is original, though it has been repaired. Gaps have been glued, the tang and handle is sanded and then oiled, making it as good as new.
Kiya is one of the excellent brands at Nihonbashi in Tokyo. They are known for great variety of kitchen knives.
