The Chef's knife and Santoku are two of the most popular and frequently used kitchen tools, complemented by a small utility knife for processing smaller products. Everything is packed in a beautiful box, creating a perfect gift set.

The characteristic shape of the chef's knife , 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 chef. The knife is very light, and the handle fits securely in both small and large hands. The perfect balance between the blade and the handle allows for a rhythmic, very efficient, rocking motion on the surface when slicing or chopping various products.

Santoku is a traditional Japanese knife, often referred to as the equivalent of a Western chef's knife. The Japanese name for this very popular knife means "three virtues" or "three excellences". This means that this knife, which in appearance resembles a combination of a chef's knife and a cleaver, is very suitable for slicing, dicing, and mincing.

Utility knife or universal knife is a smaller version of a chef's knife. Universal use, suitable wherever a chef's knife is too large.

MV-L  is the latest group of knives produced by Masahiro , and its prototype is the BWH series.  For production, molybdenum-vanadium, high-carbon stainless steel MBS-26 was also used, which was hardened in three stages until it reached a hardness of 58-59  HRC . Like every knife from the Masahiro factory, it has been perfected by craftsmen with over 30 years of experience.

The handle is made of wood called Black Pakkawood , whose many layers were compressed under high pressure and temperature into a uniform, very durable, moisture and water-resistant material. Compared to the BWH series, MV-L handles are rounder.
