One of Japan’s premier cutlery makers, KAI has been producing superb blades for over 90 years. This 6" utility knife is an excellent example of form fulfilling function. Both sides of its exquisite stainless steel blade are clad with high-carbon stainless steel to produce a rust-free surface. The blade reduces sticking and results in less damage to food being cut. The knife’s black pakkawood handle is shaped for maximum comfort and efficiency. Stainless steel bolster and end cap. Dishwasher safe, although hand washing is recommended.
