Gyuto Japanese kitchen knife Naoki Mazaki NMF-6415 24cm

One of the most skilled modern smiths in the Land of the Rising Sun, Naoki Mazaki, created the exquisite Japanese chef's knife NMF-6415. The balance between the age-old Japanese forging customs and the flawless functionality needed in a professional kitchen is embodied in this hallmark knife. With Aogami steel at its center, the 24-centimeter blade is a symphony of multilayered steel. This fabled Japanese high-carbon steel is well known for its extraordinary edge-holding and razor-sharpness capabilities. Each piece is unique because to the multilayered structure, which not only gives the blade extraordinary strength but also leaves a distinctive pattern on its surface. Magnolia wood is used to make the "wa" type handle, which has a walnut bolster.
