  • SANKEI Chef is one of the most frequently chosen kitchen knives by both professional chefs and amateurs. Originating from French cuisine, the characteristic knife shape 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. Thanks to the perfect balance of the blade and handle, it allows for a rhythmic, highly effective, rocking motion on the surface when slicing or dicing various products.
  • SANKEI Bread with its 210mm long serrated blade is designed for slicing bread. It easily handles hard bread crusts and soft interiors, providing aesthetically pleasing slices with minimal crumbs. Some chefs also use this knife to cut chocolate, tomatoes, or citrus fruits.
  • The set also includes a Paring 90mm knife. A paring knife, more precisely a peeler, is a knife designed for peeling and processing small products such as fruits and vegetables. The sharp tip allows for easy maneuvering, and its small size makes it comfortable for peeling in hand or cutting small items on a board. Due to its versatile use, it is an indispensable element of kitchen equipment.

The steel from which this series of knives was made is a unique alloy of carbon (0.85-1.00%), chromium (13-15%), and molybdenum, manganese, and vanadium.

The steel obtained in this way can be sharpened to unprecedented sharpness, and maintaining a high cutting edge aggressiveness for a very long time is a characteristic feature of Masahiro knives, recognized by users worldwide.

Keeping knives made from this alloy impeccable and shiny is not a problem. Simple washing in lukewarm water with dish soap is sufficient. Just remember to wipe the knife dry after washing.

The simple and functional shape of the handle, made of Pakkawood, gives the knife a unique character. The perfectly polished handle with two imperceptible to the touch knie
