Masahiro Sankei 3-Knife Set 358_424446_BB

The Masahiro set in elegant packaging includes three knives from the Sankei series: a Gyuto 18 cm, a bread knife 21 cm, and a Paring knife 9 cm. These are perfectly selected tools that can handle most kitchen tasks, and thanks to the beautiful box, they are an ideal gift idea.

The SANKEI Gyuto is one of the most frequently chosen tools, by both professional chefs and amateurs. Its classic shape, originating from French cuisine, makes it versatile and essential in the kitchen. The knife is lightweight, and its handle provides a secure grip, regardless of hand size. Thanks to the excellent balance of the blade and handle, it allows for precise, rhythmic slicing and chopping.

The SANKEI bread knife 21 cm with a serrated blade is the ideal knife for slicing bread. It easily handles both hard crust and soft interior, offering aesthetic slices without unnecessary crumbs. It is also often used for slicing chocolate, tomatoes, or citrus fruits.

The set also includes a Paring knife 9 cm, a peeler, perfect for processing small products such as fruits or vegetables. The sharp tip ensures precise maneuvering, and the compact size makes the knife comfortable for peeling in hand and slicing small ingredients on a board.

The MBS-26 steel used to produce the knives in this series is a unique alloy of carbon (0.85-1.00%), chromium (13-15%), and molybdenum, manganese, and vanadium. Thanks to a special heat treatment, which includes a three-stage process of hardening, cooling at a low temperature, and tempering, the material reaches a hardness of 58-59HRC. The secret of this process is known only to the Hattori family. This steel allows for achieving exceptional blade sharpness and long-term maintenance of high cutting edge aggressiveness, which is valued by users worldwide. MBS-26 belongs to the group of stainless steels, is resistant to reactions with acids, and does not change color or smell in contact with acidic products. Keeping the knives in perfect condition and shine is easy; just wash them in lukewarm water with dish soap, and after washing, they should be thoroughly dried.

The knife handle, made of pakkawood, has a simple but functional shape that gives it a unique character. The perfectly polished surface, with no perceptible rivets, ensures comfort during use, even during long hours of work with the tool.

The Sankei series was designed mainly for cooking amateurs, but it will also work well in the demanding conditions of a professional kitchen. It consists of six basic models: a chef’s knife, santoku, peeler (paring), a smaller utility knife (15 cm blade), a slicing knife, and a bread knife. It is characterized by compact sizes, excellent balance, and lightness. For safety, all models (except for the bread knife) have a rounded blade corner, which reduces the risk of injury. Like all Masahiro knives, the products from the Sankei series are distinguished by precise workmanship and attention to the smallest details.
