The Satake Houcho vegetable knife has been perfectly adapted to be the ultimate vegetable preparation tool. The high, curved edge makes it easy to chop and cut vegetables while the slightly longer blade makes it well suited for ingredients of various sizes. The blade is made of Hi Carbon Steel, meaning it is both highly durable and easy to maintain. The magnolia wood handle is both beautiful and practical, as it provides an elegant and stable grip. A high quality knife that you are sure to use all the time!
