{"product_id":"samura-arny-asian-chefs-knife-209-mm-stonewash-gray-handle","title":"Samura Arny Asian Chef's Knife 209 mm, Stonewash, Gray Handle","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Samura Arny Asian chef's knife has a tall, square-tipped 209 mm blade, made to take on heavier chopping than a classic chef's knife can. It is also suited to finer slicing and chopping, so you can use it for meat, fish, vegetables and fruit. This version pairs a stonewash AUS-8 stainless steel blade with a grey TPE handle and comes in a gift box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlade and steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade is made from \u003cstrong\u003eAUS-8 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and hardened to \u003cstrong\u003e58–59 HRC\u003c\/strong\u003e. At this hardness, the edge holds up to everyday prep and can be restored on a whetstone when it starts to dull. Leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tall, \u003cstrong\u003e92 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e-high blade is wide enough to scoop up chopped food. Its \u003cstrong\u003edouble-bevel edge\u003c\/strong\u003e is ground on both sides, which makes it straightforward to maintain on a whetstone. The \u003cstrong\u003estonewash finish\u003c\/strong\u003e gives the blade a matte, textured look rather than a polished shine, and the handle design is made to match it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandle and balance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe handle is made of \u003cstrong\u003egrey TPE\u003c\/strong\u003e (thermoplastic elastomer), a material that combines the qualities of plastic and rubber. It gives you a slip-resistant grip that sits firmly and comfortably in your palm, which matters when you take on heavier tasks. The knife weighs 365 g and measures 333 mm overall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChopping and slicing 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\u003eHeavier chopping work on boneless ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMincing, crushing and scooping chopped ingredients\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. After use, wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and dry it; a dishwasher is not recommended, and do not leave it in the sink for long. Cut on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, and store the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items. Use a honing rod between sharpenings and resharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Arny series\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/arny\"\u003eArny collection\u003c\/a\u003e was designed for a versatility that traditional knife shapes do not offer, pairing this Asian chef's knife with a modern cleaver whose curved edge slices and shaves even tender meat.
