Masahiro MV-H Bread Knife 240 mm [14951]

The Masahiro MV-H Bread Knife with a 240 mm  serrated blade  was designed for slicing bread. It easily handles hard bread crusts and soft interiors, providing aesthetic slices with minimal crumbs. Some chefs also use this knife to cut chocolate, tomatoes, or citrus fruits.

The MV-H  series  was developed and manufactured for European and American customers who use knives somewhat differently than in Japan. In addition to slicing, knives in the West are also used for chopping. Considering the use of this technique,  MV-H series knife blades  are slightly thicker and more durable for heavier tasks.

Knives in this line are made from a VG-10 derivative, molybdenum-vanadium, high-carbon stainless steel, called  MBS-26 , which has been hardened in three stages until it reaches a  58-59 HRC hardness . 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 from 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,  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 include a cutting edge that is up to  35%  thinner than a symmetrical blade, making it much sharper.
