Product Info
The Wasabi Black series of knives have a specially designed handle which fuses the hygienic properties of bamboo with the long-lasting qualities of polypropylene. The handle also hugs the blade, reducing the gaps and crevices that dirt can gather in.
This set of five knives comes with a bag to safely store and transport them with. The utility knife is perfect for peeling and paring fruit and vegetables, the Deba for preparing smaller meats like poultry and the Nakiri knife for chopping vegetables. The Santoku knife is ideal for preparing meats and vegetables while the Yanaganiba is a fine slicing knife, used particularly in the preparation of sushi.
