Masahiro Sankei Utility Knife 150mm [35845]

Masahiro SANKEI Utility  with 150 mm  blade  is a versatile knife, which is a smaller version of a chef's knife. Due to its versatile use, it is suitable wherever a chef's knife is too large, making it an indispensable element of kitchen equipment. 

MBS-26 steel , which was used to produce knives of this series, is a unique alloy of carbon (0.85-1.00%), chromium (13-15%) and molybdenum, manganese and vanadium. This material has its unique properties due to special heat treatment. The secret of the three-stage process, consisting of hardening, cooling at very low temperature and tempering to 58-59  HRC  , is known only to the company owner -  Hattori family . The steel obtained in this way can be sharpened to unprecedented sharpness, and maintaining high cutting edge aggressiveness for a very long time is a characteristic  Masahiro knives feature , recognized by consumers worldwide. MBS-26  belongs to the group of so-called stainless steel, which does not react with changes in color or odor on contact with acidic products. Keeping knives made of this alloy impeccable and shiny is not a problem. A simple wash in lukewarm water with dish soap is enough. Just remember to wipe the knife dry after washing.

The simple and functional shape of the pakkawwood  handle  gives the knife a unique character. The perfectly polished handle with two imperceptible rivets allows for extremely comfortable work with this tool, even for a long time.

The "Sankei" series   is mainly intended for amateur chefs, but it can handle the demanding conditions of a restaurant kitchen without any problems. The group includes six main knives, such as: a chef's knife, santoku, paring knife (peeler), a smaller utility knife (15 cm long blade) and a knife for slicing and cutting bread. Compact sizes, very good balance and low weight are characteristic features of this series. For safety reasons, all models (except the bread knife) have a ground angle (knife beard – cutting edge) that protects against accidental cuts. Like all  Masahiro products ,  Sankei  knives were produced with due care and passion to perfectly finish even the smallest details.
