A hand-forged and hand-hammered carbon steel vegetable kitchen knife made in South Korea following old-world techniques and featuring a traditional minimalistic design - high quality, functional and a true work of art.

This larger kitchen knife makes quick work of chopping a wide array of produce. The slightly larger blade means the knife does much of the work for the user, making meal preparation a breeze.

The knive undergoes water treatment to enhance the cutting power and longevity compared to oil. The blade hardness should be approximately 57-62 degrees. While high-end knives often exceed 60 degrees, a Master Shin knife focuses on achieving a balance between strength and flexibility. Exceeding 60 degrees can lead to blade breakage.

Handling & care:

• Do not cut frozen food
• Sharpen with wet stone not sharpening steel
• Do not use on very hard surfaces, wooden cutting boards are good
• Do not put into dishwasher
• If knife gets stuck while using, pull it out vertically and not side-way

When cared for properly, the knife will serve you well for decades to come
