Satake Noushu Masamune Saku Sashimi Chef's Knife 20 cm – Japanese Quality in Your Kitchen
The Satake Noushu Masamune Saku Sashimi chef's knife is a traditional Japanese culinary masterpiece, designed for precise and flawless fish filleting. The characteristically long, narrow, and rigid blade of this 20 cm sashimi knife is ideal for slicing fresh fish into almost transparent, hair-thin slices without damaging the structure of the meat. It's not only essential for mastering sashimi preparation but also excellent for making sushi, delicious fish carpaccio, and other sophisticated dishes where cleanliness and precise cutting are paramount.
The heart of the knife is the AUS-8A stainless steel blade, which provides outstanding edge retention and corrosion resistance, while being easy to sharpen, ensuring the knife maintains its razor-sharp edge for a long time. The single-sided sharpening guarantees a beautiful, smooth cutting surface and incredibly clean slices. Complementing the blade, the handle is crafted from premium walnut wood. The walnut handle not only enhances the knife's value with its beautiful grain and elegant appearance but also provides an excellent grip, a pleasant feel, and durability, ensuring that even prolonged work doesn't cause problems.
The Sashimi knife, a cornerstone of Japanese cuisine, dates back to the 14th century when the Japanese began consuming raw fish. The art of consuming thinly sliced raw fish, sashimi, became truly popular in the 17th century, and a special knife was developed for this refined technique. The long, thin, and rigid blade, in the case of the modern Satake Noushu Masamune Saku Sashimi knife with a 20 cm blade length, allows for perfect, single-stroke cuts, which are essential for preserving the texture of the fish meat. This knife combines traditional Japanese form with modern materials, offering a reliable and effective tool for both fish dish enthusiasts and professional chefs alike.
