The Yoshida Black ZDP-189 chef’s knife with a 210 mm blade has a very universal use in the kitchen, perfect for both chopping and slicing larger pieces of meat.
Yoshida Hamono is a family company with a very long tradition of hand-forging knives and tools. Yoshida Hamono specializes in particular in forging kitchen knives from ZDP-189 powdered steel.
Yoshida Black ZDP-189 kitchen knives are forged using the SAN-MAI technique, which means that the blade is three-layered, where a very hard core is forged from ZDP-189 steel and the outer layers are made of soft stainless steel. Thanks to the use of the San-mai technique, the blades are durable and flexible. In the heat treatment process, these knives achieve a very high hardness of 65-67 HRC. The Kuro-uchi blade finish is an unprocessed (black) steel that gives these knives a unique Japanese look. You can also see traces of hand-forging on the blades, slight dents, which makes each knife unique and one-of-a-kind. The handles of these knives are in the traditional Japanese WA style, they are octagonal and work well for both right- and left-handed people. The knives from the Yoshida Black ZDP-189 series have the features of the best kitchen knives, ZDP-189 powdered steel, functionality, and a beautiful traditional finish.
