Kai Seki Magoroku Redwood Yanagiba 0240y

Seki Magoroku Redwood is a series of chef's knives with robust stainless steel quality and typically Japanese features. With its highly polished blades, the series includes single-edged and double-edged blades that share the common denominators of well-balanced, stable functionality as well as sharpness. The design blends a basic minimalist form with traditional Japanese aesthetics. The name comes from the use of red pakkawood, from which the handle is made. The pakkawood handle is particularly elastic and moisture resistant. Seki Magoroku Redwood series blades are made of 1K6 stainless steel with a hardness of 58 (±1) HRC. Both double-edged and single-edged blade forms feature long-lasting edge retention and excellent sharpness. The single-sided sharpening traditionally used for Japanese blade shapes minimizes friction between the blade and the cut material, allowing for particularly precise cuts, as required for sushi preparation, for example.
