Moritaka 220 mm Chinese Chef's Knife Aogami-Super

kr.4.699,00

The Chinese chef's knife here from Moritaka is a beast of a knife! The name is actually misleading, because the knife is Japanese, but the name comes from the fact that you often see this type of knife used as a chef's knife in Asian cooking culture.

The blade is relatively long at 22 cm, and the knife is also quite high, so it is a large and relatively heavy knife compared to other knives from Moritaka. Although the knife looks like a meat axe, it is not! On the contrary, it has a very hard and fine egg, which will therefore be damaged if you try to use it as a meat axe.

Instead, this knife is used to cut and slice vegetables and meat - for example for wok dishes.

The knife is forged with a blade of three layers of steel with Aogami-Super in the core surrounded by one layer of iron on each side. It is thus by no means rust-free and must be expected to patina very quickly.
