Misen Chef Knife - 8 Inch Professional Kitchen Knife - High Carbon Steel Ultra Sharp Chef's Knife, Blue

About the Knife If you only buy one great knife in your lifetime, this should be it. The ultra versatile Misen chef knife combines the best features of both Western and Japanese-style blades - making it excel at any cutting task or technique. The blade is made with AICHI AUS-10 steel, which offers a superior balance between lasting sharpness and durability with 2x the carbon content of some other ?premium? knives. A perfect balance makes cutting, chopping, and slicing a breeze. While most Western-style knives have edge angles of 25 degrees, we use a more acute 15 degree angle for a noticeably sharper cutting face. About Misen The right tool makes any job easier. That?s especially true in the kitchen. The problem is, people have to choose between cheap, low-quality kitchen tools and overpriced ?premium? brands. Neither of these seemed like a good option, so we decided to make something better. By cutting out retail middlemen and selling directly to you online, we?re able to offer incredible kitchen tools at honest prices.
