It takes care of everyday chopping, slicing and shredding of vegetables, slices fruit, boneless meat and fish, and also cuts bread. The single-layer AUS-8 stainless steel blade has a dark stonewash finish and is paired with a black G-10 handle and a stainless steel bolster.\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, hardened to \u003cstrong\u003e58–59 HRC\u003c\/strong\u003e. For everyday cooking this is a sensible balance: the edge holds up well to regular use, and it is straightforward to restore on a whetstone. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel, and it stays in good condition when you wash and dry the knife soon after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade follows the traditional santoku shape, with the spine curving down to the point and the centre of gravity shifted forward, which suits chopping and shredding. \u003cstrong\u003eHollow-ground notches\u003c\/strong\u003e above the cutting edge help keep food from sticking to the blade. The \u003cstrong\u003edouble-bevel edge\u003c\/strong\u003e is ground on both sides, with an original factory bevel angle of 15–17°, and the \u003cstrong\u003estonewash finish\u003c\/strong\u003e gives the blade its dark, noble look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandle and balance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe oval handle is made of \u003cstrong\u003eblack G-10\u003c\/strong\u003e, an ergonomic and moisture-resistant material. The \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel bolster\u003c\/strong\u003e flows smoothly into the handle and keeps your hand away from the food. The knife weighs 219 g and measures 318 mm overall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChopping and dicing vegetables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShredding vegetables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlicing fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlicing boneless meat and fish\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. After that, wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and the knife should not be left 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 Mo-V Stonewash series\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/mo-v-stonewash\"\u003eMo-V Stonewash collection\u003c\/a\u003e gets its distinct dark blades from stonewashing the metal with millions of small stones.
