Use it to cut fruit and vegetables for salads and desserts, slice sausage or cheese, or prepare the ingredients for a sandwich. The blade and the bamboo-shaped handle are both steel, so the knife has an all-metal build, and it suits home and professional kitchens alike.\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. This hardness gives you a practical balance: the edge holds up well to everyday cutting, and when it needs attention, it is straightforward to restore on a whetstone. 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 blade is thin, in keeping with the Bamboo series design. The \u003cstrong\u003edouble-bevel edge\u003c\/strong\u003e is ground on both sides, and its original factory bevel angle is 15–17°.\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 ribbed, anatomically shaped profile gives you a firm, secure grip and helps stop the knife from turning in your hand, even when your hand is wet. The knife weighs 67 g and measures 256 mm overall, so it is light in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting fruit and vegetables for salads and desserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlicing sausage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlicing cheese\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreparing ingredients for sandwiches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting bread\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. 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 resharpen 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.
