Pro S Series

The blade is made of Molybdenum alloy high carbon stainless steel with traditional"Hamaguri ba" (Convex edge grind), the edge that made Japanese swords famous, for an outstanding sharpness and durability,and yet easy to resharpen. It is heat treated and then Sub Zero quenched. which refrigerates the blade to  70 degrees for longer edge retention and strength to brittleness and chipping.     We are now pleased to add the Stainless steel Hollow Handle version. Light weight, yet Well balanced 18-8 Hollow Stainless steel handle has traditional Katana Handle Pattern (The pattern also makes non-slip grip) and comforatable Roound shape grip.    We have wide selections of quality Japanese kitchen knives, but noticed we have not carried Stainless steel handle items. Advantage of Stainless steel handle is sanitary, seamless and has good durability, does not get shrinked ulike wooden handle.  I like the idea and design of Pro S Katana style handle, as it perfectly matches with Katana sharpness of Pro S special Hamaguri convex edge blade. This could be a special weapon for Samurai chefs.   UP!!  Now Kanetsugu Legendary Katana Chef knives have got Saya!  You can store it with Saya to not only protect your knife safely, but also enjoy real Katana look with matching wooden Saya.  The new prices  include wooden saya.                                  Edge Shape              Information For Left Hander                                 Double Bevel Edge 50/50                           All models (Except PS-08 Boning 145mm) are suitable for both Right Hander and Left Hander.        Pro S Petty          PS-01     Petty 130mm Total Length:240mm   BladeThickness:1.5mm Total Weight:78g           $55.00                         PS-02     Petty 150mm Total Length:260mm   BladeThickness:1.5mm Total Weight:82g            $59.00                  Pro S Santoku 170mm          PS-03   Santoku 170mm Total Length:300mm   BladeThickness:2mm Total Weight:145g            $84.00              Pro S Gyuto          PS-04   Gyuto 180mm Total Length:305mm   BladeThickness:2mm Total Weight:138g             $83.00                          PS-05   Gyuto 210mm Total Length:340mm   BladeThickness:2mm Total Weight:152g             $88.00                       PS-06   Gyuto 240mm Total Length:380mm   BladeThickness:2mm Total Weight:206g             $104.00                        PS-07   Gyuto 270mm Total Length:405mm   BladeThickness:2mm Total Weight:227g                 $123.00               Pro S Boning Knife          PS-08  Boning 145mm Total Length:285mm   BladeThickness:2mm Total Weight:164g              $84.00               Pro S Sujihiki 240mm          PS-09  Sujihiki 240mm Total Length:365mm   BladeThickness:2mm Total Weight:147g              $102.00
