The blade is built for heavier work than a regular chef's knife can take on, yet it also suits finer jobs such as chopping, slicing and peeling. Use it for meat, fish, vegetables and fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlade and steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade is made from a \u003cstrong\u003esingle layer of AUS-8 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and hardened to \u003cstrong\u003e58–59 HRC\u003c\/strong\u003e. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel. At this hardness the edge handles daily chopping well, and it is straightforward to bring back to sharpness on a whetstone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003edouble-bevel edge\u003c\/strong\u003e is ground on both sides, so it is simple to maintain. With a blade height of 92 mm, the broad blade also lets you scoop up chopped ingredients and move them off the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandle and balance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grey handle is made of \u003cstrong\u003eTPE\u003c\/strong\u003e (thermoplastic elastomer), which is known for its slip resistance. It gives you a secure grip and sits firmly and comfortably in your palm, an important point when you work with a large, heavy-duty knife. The knife weighs 365 g net and is 333 mm long overall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChopping vegetables and fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlicing and portioning boneless meat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting and portioning fish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMincing and crushing ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScooping chopped food with the broad blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare and sharpening\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore first use, rinse the knife with hot water and wipe it dry. Clean it by hand with non-abrasive materials and dry it straight away; a dishwasher is not recommended, and the knife should not stay in the sink for long. Work on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade, and keep the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items. Between sharpenings use a honing rod, and sharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Arny series\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSAMURA designed the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/arny\"\u003eArny series\u003c\/a\u003e for cooks who need more versatility than traditional knife shapes provide, and next to this Asian chef's knife the series offers a modern cleaver with a curved cutting edge for slicing even the most tender meats.
