VG10 16 Layer Hammered Damascus Stainless Steel Paring Utility Knife (3.2" / Mahogany Handle)

Key Features

• Forged and hammered with 16 layers of steel in the Damascus tradition with a VG10 Core, the VG10 Hammered Damascus Series has been a perennial seller, combining performance, beauty, and extraordinary value.
• Sometimes called a Peeling knife, the Paring knife resembles a small chef's knife and has a medium sized blade that can maneuver through both small and big jobs. A razor sharp Paring knife can intricately carve and style vegetables and fruits for beautiful presentations and garnishes, performing just as well for bigger jobs such as preparing meals.
• This Paring will soon become the go-to knife in your kitchen. The difference will be felt right away when a hand forged Japanese Paring knife of incomparable sharpness is used for smaller precision tasks such as peeling, trimming, and slicing small fruits and vegetables to handling bigger tasks as a small chefs knife. Even the simplest of tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.
• Proudly made in Japan. This knife is complimented with a premium Western Style Handle that extends to the full tang of the knife and ergonomically welds to the hand for seamless use. The hammered texture of the blade eliminates friction and keeps food from sticking to the blade. Every knife from Yoshihiro is handcrafted by master artisans creating a unique one-of-a-kind work of art.
• Traditional Japanese knife making values a sharp edge, which requires attention and care. Sharpening and honing should be done with only water whetstones. Hand wash and dry only, and do so immediately if working with acidic ingredients. Do not use on objects such as bones, nutshells, and frozen foods.
