Masahiro BWH 3-Knife Set 140_112301_BB

The Masahiro BWH series knife set, packaged in an elegant box, includes three essential tools: a chef’s knife (21 cm), a Santoku knife (17.5 cm) and a Paring knife (9 cm). The chef’s knife and Santoku are the two most frequently chosen knives by professional chefs, and the Paring knife is the perfect complement to the set, designed for precise tasks such as peeling or processing small ingredients. The chef’s knife is a versatile tool with a characteristic shape that is essential in every kitchen. Its lightweight construction and excellent balance ensure comfort and precision during work, allowing for both rhythmic slicing and chopping of larger products. Santoku is a Japanese knife that combines the features of a chef’s knife with a cleaver. Its versatility makes it perfect for slicing, dicing, and chopping. Thanks to its construction, the Santoku knife provides precision and efficiency in many kitchen tasks. The Paring knife with a blade length of 9 cm is ideal for peeling fruits and vegetables, thanks to its sharper tip, which allows for precise maneuvering. The entire set, packaged in an aesthetic box, makes an excellent gift idea, combining functionality, high quality, and an elegant appearance.   The BWH series of knives is inspired by the MV-H line, with the same molybdenum-vanadium, high-carbon stainless steel MBS-26. This steel undergoes a three-stage hardening process, reaching a hardness of 58-59 HRC. The knife blades are carefully shaped by artisans with over 30 years of experience, which gives them exceptional sharpness, reaching a level that distinguishes them from others. The knife handle is made of Black Pakkawood, which consists of many layers pressed under high pressure and at high temperature, creating an exceptionally durable material resistant to moisture and water. The wood with an antibacterial coating is easy to care for, resembling plastic, and the handle is securely fastened with three precisely set and polished rivets. The knives from this series are sharpened on both sides, but in contrast to most Western manufacturers, Masahiro uses asymmetrical sharpening in a ratio of 80/20. This means that the cutting edge is shifted towards one of the knife’s axes. Asymmetrical sharpening allows for a thinner cutting edge, up to 35% compared to traditional, symmetrical blades, which translates into greater sharpness.
