Seller's description

KOTAI’s paring knife (9 cm blade) with pakkawood handle is a perfect tool to peel fruits and vegetables.

ULTRA SHARP: High carbon Japanese 440C stainless steel blade (1% carbon for a blade 3 times harder and sharper, and that stays that way longer). Slices all types of food effortlessly for a clean and precise cut that preserves all the flavour of the ingredients.

HAMMERED FINISH: Called “Tsuchime” in Japanese, this hammering technique is handmade by KOTAI craftsmen. In addition to its unique aesthetic qualities, this reduces friction and allows food to stick less to the blade while cutting.

COMFORT AND PRECISION: The KOTAI paring knife is a hybrid between a “sheep’s foot” and a “spear tip”. Its blade edge is mostly flat, allowing great precision and easy peeling, while its tip is slightly pointed for intricate coring tasks. The hand-polished, round pakkawood handle ensures a firm and comfortable grip, even with wet hands, for right-handed and left-handed persons.

DURABLE AND HYGIENIC: Pakkawood is a water-resistant technical wood that prevents bacteria and splinters normally present in wooden handles. Full hidden tang - A single piece of steel from the tip of the blade to the end of the handle provides the Paring Knife an ideal balance and extraordinary durability.

EASY MAINTENANCE: Blade forged from a unique alloy of Japanese 440C steel containing 17% chrome to prevent rust.

Excellent knife. I have small hands. The weight is just perfect and it is an easy knife for me to use. The blade is amazing and the box that it comes in is beautiful as well.
