Its wide, very thin blade, shaped a little like a hatchet, lets you chop a salad quickly or make fine cuts in vegetables without crushing them. This is the engraved version, finished in the black-on-black look of the Shadow series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlade and steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade is a single layer of \u003cstrong\u003eAUS-8 stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e, hardened to \u003cstrong\u003e58–59 HRC\u003c\/strong\u003e. The edge holds up well in everyday vegetable prep, and when it starts to dull, you can restore it on a whetstone without much effort. The \u003cstrong\u003edouble-bevel edge\u003c\/strong\u003e is ground on both sides, with an original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA \u003cstrong\u003eblack non-stick coating\u003c\/strong\u003e covers the blade. It helps keep slices from sticking as you cut and gives the knife its dark, understated look.

Wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials, wipe it dry and do not leave it in the sink for long; a dishwasher is not recommended. Use it on wooden or plastic boards only, never on glass, and turn to a SAMURA cleaver for bones and a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade for frozen food. Keep it in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items, use a honing rod between sharpenings and sharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Shadow series\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/shadow\"\u003eShadow series\u003c\/a\u003e pairs black non-stick coated AUS-8 blades with durable ABS plastic handles, giving the most popular kitchen knife types a sleek black-on-black design.
