The Sakai Kikumori Nihonko Gyuto chef’s knife has a blade length of 180 mm. This chef’s knife is very handy and has a universal use – it can be used for all kitchen tasks. Nihonko Gyuto is a basic knife in the equipment of every kitchen. One of the most popular and best-selling series of kitchen knives from the manufacturer Sakai Kikumori is Nihonko. Each knife is produced from Japanese carbon steel, in which the carbon content is 0.95%. During production, the steel is subjected to hardening, as a result of which it gains a hardness of 63 HRC. It is worth mentioning that the blades of Nihonko knives are made from one piece of steel – the so-called mono-steel. Thanks to the steel used, Nihonko knives can be easily sharpened, and in addition, they retain their given level of sharpness for a long time. They are recommended primarily to professional chefs, but they also work well in home kitchens. They will appeal to all people who demand functionality and excellent parameters from a kitchen knife. The handle of the knives is made of pakkawood, it has an ergonomic shape, thanks to which it ensures comfort during work. After finishing work with the knives, they should be washed and dried (the steel from which they are produced is not stainless). The leader in the production of kitchen knives in Japan, the Sakai Kikumori company, was founded in 1926. It recommends its products primarily to professional users. The unique features of Sakai Kikumori kitchen knives result from inspiration from the centuries-old craft tradition – Sakai has a 600-year history, being the main center for the production of traditional Japanese knives. Cooperation with the highest-class blacksmiths and sharpeners results in the production of the best kitchen knives for professional use – both traditional Japanese-style knives and modern Western-style ones.
