How to choose your Japanese knives ?

The knives will be chosen according to the use for which they are intended and the food you wish to work with.

Curved blades such as the Bird's Beak knife are better suited to the shape of vegetables for peeling or carving.

Remember to wipe your knives with a dry cloth after each use and to oil them regularly. Finally, avoid putting wooden handles and folding knives in the dishwasher.

With their sharp blade and unmatched edge, Japanese knives are very popular in the art of tableware.
