Masahiro Carving Knife, Flexible MH-926F, 20cm

Masahiro MV-H knives are produced in Seki, Japan from MBS-26 high carbon stainless steel. Masahiro forms part of an elite group of the most prestigious brands in Japan and its MBS-26 stainless steel is treated by three stages of quenching, sub-zero treating and tempering until the steel reaches a hardness of 58-60 HRC. Masahiro knives are amazingly light in weight, yet perfectly balanced. The durable resin handle is a heat, moisture and solvent resistant. It is much more practical and longer lasting than a laminated wood handle, and resistant to bacteria which keeps the knife very hygienic in daily use. The three rivet design uses on the handle uses a very wide full tang almost as wide as the handle itself, providing plenty of room for the rivets whilst its smooth rounded design feels great in the hand.
