Product Information
Chop, chop, chop can be tough on your hands. Using a knife especially designed to make chopping veggies easier has got to improve things, right? We thought so.
Designed specifically for chopping vegetables, this knife is similar in style to the Japanese Nakiri knife. Broad-bladed, and blunt-nosed, the thin, sharp blade takes the work out of chopping a lot of veggies by hand.
All knife measurements are for the blade only, not the handle.
Description
Triplex Technology - The harder the stainless steel, the longer it retains a razor sharp edge, but hard stainless steel can be brittle. I.O.Shen have solved this problem by wrapping two reinforced layers of softer, shock-absorbing Rockwell 10° steel around the core of ultra hard Rockwell 62°.
All knives in the I.O.Shen range have used the very latest technology to construct a blade that is not only amazingly sharp but will also retain their edge for a phenomenal amount of time. They have been hand sharpened to a 15° angle, which allows for wonderful slicing and portion control.
I.O. Shen Handle Design
The unique handle design distinguishes I.O.Shen from any other knife. It is an essential factor in achieving balance and stability. The Tai Tang is not simply an embellishment, it is an integral part of the handle. The handles are produced from a synthetic material, called ebonite, which is both durable and heat resistant.
