The luxury kitchen knife you want

Do you notice that the blade of your kitchen knife instantly sinks into the watermelon? Not really? Then we regret to inform you that you do not have quality knives in your kitchen. The many years of experience we have in the fruit and vegetable sector have allowed us to realize this. The weight of some knives is unbalanced and makes cutting difficult and in others the blade is not even sharp. We have also suffered when the handle of the kitchen knives came loose. We have even worked with non-stick knives!

Thanks to our experience working in luxury kitchens we can share our knowledge with you. Today, specifically, we want to recommend some luxury knives that make it easier for you in your kitchen every day. We are talking about the Seki Magoroku range of the Japanese brand Kai. The fame that precedes the legendary brand already helps us get an idea of ​​the quality of the knife, but it is when we have it in our hands when it is proven.

We are going to focus on Chef Seki Magoroku’s knife of 28’0 centimeters. A light knife, with an extremely sharp non-stick blade allows us to cut any piece with a gentle wrist movement, without making too much pressure and without breaking the fruit or vegetable. The western edge on both sides of the blade has two types of steel of maximum hardness (VG-Max hardness HCR = 61 for the inner core and steel SUS420J2 for the exterior satin) combined with a copper solution that remains visible. The handle is made of Pakka wood.

For any chef’s knife to be kept in good condition it is very important to clean it by hand, with a sponge and mild soap, as the dishwasher can damage the edge. The same happens when you put it away: never in a drawer where it can be hit or even cut us, always in its case or block of knives. In short, a kitchen knife that will come in handy to cut meats, fish, fruits and vegetables, as well as to chop everything.
