G amane VG10 TRANCHEUR
Product Features
For trimming and slicing meat and fish
This is a double-edged knife designed for trimming and slicing large cuts of meat and fish.
It comes in a wide range of sizes and features a long, narrow blade.
Unlike the Yanagiba knife, which is single-bevel, this slicer does not create sharp edges on sashimi slices. However, its narrow and long blade still allows for sashimi slicing.
By using a pulling motion to cut, you can minimize damage to the flesh, making this knife an excellent choice for preparing sashimi at home.
Made of VG10 steel
VG10, a steel material made with high precision hardening technology, is characterized by its high hardness and long-lasting sharpness.
7 Key Features
Professional-grade stainless steel
VG10 steel used for the blade is extremely hard and has properties similar to those of carbon steel.
In order to take advantage of this superior steel, amane tempered the steel without reducing its hardness and carefully removed distortions from the all-steel blade, which is prone to cracking.
The knife is then subjected to a further process of thickness removal using a whetstone, and is filled with the essence of handcraftsmanship.
Hamaguri (convex) edge with a smooth cut
Smoothly curved from the spine toward the edge, the thin blade provides a smooth cut due to less interruption.
The blade is designed to keep the edge durability and to have a better food release.
One-piece steel for easy sharpening and blade adjustment to suit the user's hand.
The blade tip is angled with a 7:3 ratio of front to back, making it easier for right-handed users to use (a model for left-handed users available).
Knives made of a single piece of steel allow for easy blade adjustment to suit the user's preference.
For example, it is possible to sharpen the blade to a shape similar to a single-edged blade, resulting in a sharper blade.
Also, amane, which is thoroughly strained in the manufacturing process, is characterized by a stable sharpening feel even after years of use.
Carefully crafted handle for easy gripping
In pursuit of a comfortable grip, the handles are carefully polished over and over again to eliminate gaps between the metal and plywood parts, resulting in a glossy, rounded finish that is extremely comfortable in the hand.
It can be used for long periods of time without stress on the gripped hand, and is recommended for people with small hands.
The handle is a subtle detail that is noticed only when you hold it, but it is a handle that is filled with care for the user.
Hygienic and durable stainless steel bolster
Adding a bolster between the blade and handle prevents water from seeping into the handle, making it more hygienic and resistant to damage. This enhances the knife’s overall durability.
Additionally, the bolster is made of rust-resistant stainless steel, which helps prevent stains and dirt buildup, ensuring long-lasting cleanliness and durability.
Logo mark of KAMA-ASA
The KAMA-ASA logo, placed on the back of the blade, is proof of our commitment to originality. It represents the unique craftsmanship and dedication which are only available at KAMA-ASA.
