Suncraft MU Bamboo Knife Set in Gift Box MU_040301
Set of 3 Suncraft MU Bamboo Knives in a Decorative Cardboard Box
The set includes three essential knives. There is a Chef knife with a blade length of 200 mm, and its Japanese equivalent is the Santoku knife with a blade length of 167 mm. Santoku is a multi-functional Japanese-style knife, the Western equivalent of the popular Chef's knife. Its name means "three virtues". There's a reason for this – this knife is perfect for slicing meat, fish, and vegetables. The set is complemented by a Paring knife with a blade length of 80 mm. The Paring knife is primarily a peeling knife, but also a specialist for intricate and more delicate tasks, useful where a short, sharp blade is needed. An additional element of the set is elegant and exclusive cardboard packaging, perfectly suitable for a gift.
For the production of MU BAMBOO knives, high-quality Japanese molybdenum-vanadium steel is used, hardened to 58-59 HRC . Their handles are made from traditionally Japanese bamboo, carbonized for strength. The use of this material for handle production is a kind of tribute that the designers pay to Japanese nature – after all, bamboo is common in the Land of the Rising Sun.
The MU series was created under the influence of modern fusion cuisine, so Carallo-Grandis included both knives typical for European cuisine and classic Japanese knives, such as Santoku or Sashimi. The entire collection is a perfect combination of Italian design and Japanese quality.
