The polished blades of the Wasabi Black series are made from the new technology, rust-resistant 6A/1K6 steel and are particularly rust-resistant due to their high chromium content. It is a classic type of stainless steel. Its high carbon content provides better edge retention.
The blade length is 16.5 cm.
The black plastic handle is water-resistant and consequently very sturdy. Its shape offers a pleasant, natural feel thanks to the addition of bamboo powder.
The length of the handle is 12.5 cm.
It is recommended to make cuts on wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Glass, stone, and marble cutting surfaces are unsuitable, as they can cause permanent damage to the knife blades.
Wash the knife with warm water before using it for the first time. After each use, make sure to wash the knife without delay (with a simple detergent) and dry it with a soft cloth. Especially if you have cut acidic foods, you must wash the knife immediately after use.
For your safety, you should always wipe the knife away from your body and away from the edge, with a cloth or towel.
It is not recommended to wash it in the dishwasher but by hand, in order to protect its material and maintain its sharpness for a long time.
No matter how sharp a knife is initially, after some use it needs sharpening, which you can achieve with a sharpener, whetstone, or honing rod.
You can tell if your knife cuts well with an easy test using the knife and a piece of paper. A sharp knife can easily and cleanly cut a piece of paper. In contrast, a knife that needs sharpening will struggle and its cut will be jagged.
It is also recommended to occasionally have your knives sharpened by a professional to repair any potential damage to the blade edge and to maintain sharpness.

Incredible knife, perfect cutting and very lightweight in the hand. And durability, I have had it for over 4 years and I still use it
I don't know much about knives, my daughter asked for it to use in the kitchen when she cooks, but the 3-4 times I used it, it was a great experience. It cut very well without force or effort. Be careful not to cut yourself!
Without having much experience with knives, I have been very satisfied when it is sharpened. It often needs sharpening to cut through "air"
Very good for its price, but not something that would interest me as a knife collector, it's just a tool, I would say mass-produced, and I gave it to my wife, I just sharpen it for her.
The edge is very good from the factory, I don't like that the knife is thin.
If you want a chef's knife for your kitchen, stay away from the very cheap ones you would buy at the supermarket and at least get this one, it will save your hands, it won't empty your wallet, if you take care of it a little, it will last a lifetime.
The knife is excellent at this price and worthy of the KAI name.
Well sharpened out of the box, but with a metal hardness that I would consider low in a professional kitchen, resulting in the need for more frequent sharpening. However, it is much easier to sharpen (even with a leather strop, it holds a regular sharpening)
