Japanese quality for everyday use
The Narihira series is Tojiro's budget-friendly knife line produced under license. The knives are manufactured in the East and undergo final inspection in Japan, ensuring a quality product at an attractive price. While the steel isn't as hard as that found in Tojiro's more expensive series, you still receive a knife with excellent cutting properties. The main advantage is that the knife is easier to maintain with a standard honing steel compared to harder Japanese knives.
Practical benefits for everyday life
Weighing in at just 230 grams, this filleting knife fits comfortably in your hand without becoming too heavy during extended use. The 29 cm blade provides the reach necessary to fillet larger fish or carve larger cuts of meat in one smooth motion. The hard steel with a 59 HRC rating offers a good balance between sharpness and durability. The light wooden handle ensures a comfortable and secure grip, even with wet hands.
Maintenance and care
To preserve the knife's sharp edge for as long as possible, you should wash it by hand after use and dry it thoroughly. Never use a dishwasher, as it can damage both the blade and handle. Regular maintenance with a honing steel is recommended to keep the edge sharp. When the knife eventually dulls, it can be sharpened repeatedly, making it a long-term investment for your kitchen.
