The SHOGUN SERIES FOLDED JAPANESE STEEL KNIFE SET

8″ Chef Knife

The Shogun Series Folded Japanese steel 8” chef knife is the perfect tool for the bulk of your cooking tasks. Long enough to chop the most awkward shaped cuts, but sized for comfort and dexterity. This is the ‘go to’ in the chef’s arsenal. The 8” chef knife has a broad blade tapering up to a point which allows the knife to rock back and forth in a skilled chef’s hands while dicing, mincing, or performing other essential tasks. Fashioned out of 67 layers of AUS10 steel and hammered with a “Tsuchime” finish to reduce the drag of the knife.

Reason for sale: Wood not stabilized properly by wood supplier. This has caused a small gap between the grip and the blade, as well as some cracking in the handle. See images for details.

Myoshi knives is created in Montreal, Canada. After years of development, the Myoshi lines stems from a deep desire to create unique, high end professional chef knives combined with clean designs. To this end, we sourced the highest quality materials to produce a beautiful work of art. It would not only be a stunning piece in any kitchen, but prove to be an exceptional knife for both cooking enthusiasts and professionals alike. We extensively examined various types of wood to compare the different grains, weights and hardness. We  crafted an ergonomic grip that has long lasting performance without compromising aesthetic beauty. This enabled us to mesh Japanese blade designs with modern European styling, resulting into a luxurious work of art, surpassing the mere classification of “kitchen knives”.
