Knife Description:
 
Benifuji is part of Kai's Seki Magoroku range of knives. Many celebrated swords were born in Seki area and in the Kamakura era. The master craftsman “Magoroku of Seki” had the original technique producing beautiful swords which were high quality and had outstanding sharpness.

Made in Japan, these knives have a full tang which makes them robust and eases hand fatigue. Constructed from AUS-8A Stainless Steel, each blade is subjected to a 3 chamfering processes. This special grinding process reduces the friction against food and blade and gives you a knife with an extremely sharp cutting edge.

Like others in the Kai family, the handle is made from hard wearing PakkaWood® which enables durability and comfort, as well as making it an attractive looking knife to have in your collection.
 
The Chef's knife is the one knife no cook can be without. This all-purpose knife is ideal for a wide variety of cutting tasks. The 18 cm length is perfect for preparing fruits, vegetables, proteins and a wide variety of other foods.

The Magoroku Benifuji Chef's Knife is based on its Asian counterpart, the Gyuto. It offers a wider heel, a fairly flat profile toward the heel—perfect for push cuts—but we also gave it a little belly from mid-blade toward the tip so that it can be gently "rocked" through fresh herbs or spices to produce a very fine mince

Knife should be Handwashed only!
