Among the most exclusive knife manufacturers in the world we find Nenox from Tokyo. The knife here is a 21 cm chef's knife in western style with a fabulous edge and a beautiful handle in black micarta
This knife is a gyuto , which is based on the classic French chef's knife. The knife is good for most tasks when cooking, and is thus suitable for both slicing and chopping meat and vegetables. The length of 21 cm is a typical standard length that most users find comfortable.
The steel the knife is made of is stainless, and Nenox does not disclose anything about its composition. Certain manufacturers understandably do not want to reveal all secrets, but we can reveal that this is steel in an absolutely special class.
When you hold this knife, you get the feeling of standing with a nice piece of tool. The knife is not only good, but also a masterpiece in its execution.
