The Meguro 8-inch stainless steel Japanese Chef's Knife is crafted with care. Forged steel is folded and hammered to produce a remarkably sharp and resilient knife perfect for most daily kitchen work.

Chefs the world over use this knife for many kitchen prep tasks. The home chef will find it ideal for the following activities:

• Dicing
• Slicing
• Chopping
• Trimming

The knife features a layered Damascus steel construction and handle made from birch that has been treated to resist the cracking, checking, warping, surface oxidation, and dulling that many inferior knives display with age.

Each knife is unique. Wood grain and Damascus steel will have slight variations in pattern and color.
