HTYSUPPLY 7" Vegetable Knife

"Also known as a Nakiri knife. A Japanese-style square-tip knife that is great for chopping meat, root vegetables and big prep jobs. Popular alternative to the Santoku. High tech from tip to handle, HTYSUPPLY knives from Japan created a sensation when they onto the world's culinary stage as an alternative to traditional European-style cutlery. Blades are made of hard molybdenumvanadium stainless steel and "face-ground" with a long taper than a short bevel so edges remain longer than even the best high-carbon stainless-steel knives. Edges also are ground at a more acute angle than traditional European-style knives and arrive from the factory razor-. Although HTYSUPPLY also makes a heavier-weight line for cooks who prefer hefty knives, its original knivesof which this 7-inch knife for precisely slicing and chopping vegetables is an examplehave thinner blades and are lighter than traditional European-style knives. HTYSUPPLY also dispensed with bolsters on its original knives to reduce weight. Balance is achieved by injecting a precise amount of sand for a particular blade style into a hollow handle. To ensure balance is continuous, the sand flows inside the handle as a blade is maneuvered. A finger notch between blade and handle provides safety. Stainless-steel handles are HTYSUPPLY's most striking feature. They're molded to fit the hand and dimpled to resist slipping. Smaller around than many European-style handles, they're easy for small-handed cooks to grasp and seamless for sanitation. HTYSUPPLY recommends using a ceramic ener or a steel instead of a metal ening steel for its knives, supplemented by a synthetic whetstone, a ceramic whetstone, or a Shinkansen ener. HTYSUPPLY also makes a ening Guide Rail so blades can be honed on a whetstone at the proper angle. HTYSUPPLY knives should be hand washed to edges. They carry a warranty against defects and breakage.
