8.4" Japanese Chef Knife, Ultra Sharp High Carbon Stainless Steel, Ash Wood Handle

The 8.4-inch Japanese chef knife is a versatile kitchen knife designed for slicing, chopping, dicing, and mincing meat, vegetables, fruits, and herbs. Its tapered 2.3 mm blade and hand-sharpened 13° double-bevel edge per side support controlled, precise cuts for everyday meal preparation, from thin slicing and vegetable chopping to meat and brisket preparation. The blade is hand-forged from high-carbon stainless steel and heat-treated, oil-quenched, and tempered to 57±1 HRC for a balance of sharpness, toughness, and edge retention. The carbonized ash wood handle is secured with three rivets and designed for a comfortable, stable grip. An integrated finger hole near the bolster provides an additional gripping position for controlled handling during kitchen preparation, BBQ, and outdoor cooking. The laser-etched wave pattern gives the blade a distinctive Japanese-inspired appearance and supports smoother food release during slicing. Packaged in a black wave-pattern presentation box, this ultra sharp chef knife is suitable for home cooks, cooking enthusiasts, BBQ users, and anyone looking for a versatile high-carbon stainless steel kitchen knife for everyday food preparation.
