It is made for food with a fairly hard crust and a very soft core, above all bread and other baked goods, and it also copes well with fruit such as citrus and pineapple. The steel blade and the bamboo-shaped steel handle give the knife a light, all-metal build.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlade and steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade is made from a single layer of \u003cstrong\u003eAUS-8 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e, hardened to \u003cstrong\u003e58–59 HRC\u003c\/strong\u003e. At this hardness, the edge holds up well to everyday cutting. As a stainless steel, AUS-8 is corrosion-resistant, but you should still wash and dry the knife soon after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wavy \u003cstrong\u003eserrated edge\u003c\/strong\u003e is made for a firm crust: it then cuts the soft or juicy core gently, without crushing or crumbling it. The 200 mm length gives you room to slice loaves and fruit of different sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandle and balance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe silver handle is made of \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and shaped like a bamboo stem, the signature of the series. Its unusual shape gives the knife a stylish look, and the handle is ergonomically shaped. The knife weighs 111 g and measures 324 mm overall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlicing crusty bread and loaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting baked goods with a hard crust and a soft centre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting citrus fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting pineapple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlicing soft, juicy fruit and vegetables without crushing them\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare and sharpening\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse the knife with hot water and wipe it dry before first use, then wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; 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 leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade. 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, when the edge needs it, sharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Bamboo series\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/bamboo\"\u003eBamboo series\u003c\/a\u003e is known for its full metal body: AUS-8 steel blades paired with stainless steel handles shaped like a bamboo stem.
