Masahiro BWH 140_1102 Knife Set
A Masahiro set in decorative packaging, consisting of BWH series knives: Chef 210 mm and Utility 120 mm . The Chef's knife is the most popular and frequently used knife for kitchen tasks, and its smaller variant – the 120 mm Utility knife – perfectly complements it. Moreover, everything packed in a beautiful box makes for an excellent gift set.
The characteristic chef's knife shape , originating from French cuisine, is used for many kitchen tasks, and the name "chef's knife" emphasizes that it is an indispensable tool for every cook. The knife is very light, and the handle fits securely in both small and large hands. Due to the perfect balance of blade and handle, it allows for a rhythmic, highly efficient, rocking motion on the surface when cutting or chopping various products.
The Utility knife or all-purpose knife is a smaller version of the chef's knife. It's versatile, suitable wherever a chef's knife is too large. The smaller version of the Utility knife can also be used for peeling.
BWH is a series of knives developed based on the MV-H line. Molybdenum-vanadium, high-carbon stainless steel MBS-26 was also used, which underwent a three-stage hardening process to achieve a hardness of 58-59 HRC . Each blade has been refined by craftsmen with over 30 years of experience, making Masahiro knives of unprecedented sharpness.
The handle is made of wood called Black Pakkawood , whose many layers were compressed under high pressure and high temperature into a uniform, highly durable, moisture and water-resistant material. The wooden handle with an antibacterial coating is as easy to clean as plastic and is secured with three perfectly placed and polished rivets.
