Masahiro MV-H 149_1102 Knife Set
Masahiro set in a decorative package, consisting of MV-H Chef 210mm and Utility 120mm series knives. The Chef's knife is the most popular and frequently used knife for kitchen work, and its smaller version – 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.

Utility knife or universal knife is a smaller version of the chef's knife. It is versatile, suitable wherever a chef's knife is too large. The smaller Utility knife version can also be used for peeling.

Each blade has been refined by masters with over 30 years of experience, making Masahiro knives incredibly sharp.
The hygienic handle with antibacterial properties is made of a material called polyacetal (POM), which is exceptionally durable. The handle is secured with three perfectly placed rivets, and an additional metal reinforcement is used between it and the blade.
Knives in this series are sharpened on both sides, but unlike most Western manufacturers,
