Masahiro BWH Chef Dimple Knife 210mm [14081]

Masahiro BWH Chef , with a blade length of 210 mm , is one of the most frequently chosen kitchen knives by both professional chefs and amateurs. Originating from French cuisine, the characteristic shape of the knife 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 the blade and handle, it allows for a rhythmic, highly effective, rocking motion on the surface when cutting or chopping various products.

Dimple version means that the blade has grooves on both sides, which prevents cut products from sticking to the knife.

BWH is a knife series 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 masters with over 30 years of experience, making Masahiro knives unprecedentedly sharp.

The handle is made of wood called Black Pakkawood , whose many layers were compressed under high pressure and high temperature into a uniform, very 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.

Knives in this series are sharpened on both sides, but unlike most Western manufacturers, Masahiro sharpens them asymmetrically 80/20 . This means that the cutting edge is shifted to one side on the knife's axis. The advantages of asymmetrical sharpening are a cutting edge that is up to 35% thinner than a symmetrical blade, making it much sharper.
