Description

Masahiro BWH Paring knife 90mm [14001]

Masahiro BWH Paring with 90 mm blade is a knife designed for peeling and processing small products such as fruits and vegetables. Its shape resembles a miniature chef's knife, and the sharp tip allows for easy maneuvering. Indispensable in every kitchen. 

BWH is a knife series developed according to 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 perfected by craftsmen with over 30 years of experience, making Masahiro knives incredibly sharp.

The handle is made of wood called  Black Pakkawood, whose numerous 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 of the blade's axis. The advantages of asymmetrical sharpening include a cutting edge that is up to  35% thinner than a symmetrical blade, making it much sharper.
