bello quanto tagliente

Sembrerebbe un buon coltello per il pane in realtà per come arriva confezionato e per come sono stati curati i dettagli potete metterlo tranquillamente in sala.
Stiamo parlando di un coltello ben bilanciato 175 gr per una lama lunga 20 cm, con un manico dalla presa non ergonomica ma solida. Tutto questo si traduce in coltello sicuro, difficile che scivoli di mano, poi quando capita...capita.
La lama è molto sottile e robusta allo stesso tempo, con questo coltello sarete dei veri ninja a tagliare il pane o meglio la schiacciata per farcirla con quello che vi piace di più. Tagliare il pane con questo coltello sarà come affondare nel burro, anche il pane con la crosta più tenace. Il taglia che dona il coltello è preciso e sopra tutto netto. Un prodotto di qualità che si fa pagare ad oggi 107 € possono sembrare tanti, ma è un coltello diverso, non paragonabile con gli altri.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the steel used for the blade? Will it rust?

This knife is made of 440C steel from Japan. 440C is a high-carbon stainless steel, meaning that it combines the property of high-carbon steel (very hard due to the high carbon content of 0.95%+ and the vacuum heat treatment, therefore very sharp and able to keep its edge for much longer than other steels) and stainless steel (ability to resist corrosion and stains). So the blade will not rust, but you have to care for it properly by washing it with soapy water and drying it quickly after using it.

Do not put it in the dishwasher or leave it to soak in the sink.

Is it worth buying this knife or should I just get a 30€ knife from Ikea?

A “cheap” knife will end up costing you more in the long run, because it can break or turn dull. Low quality steel will not keep a sharp edge no matter how many hours you waste on sharpening, and you will end up having to buy a new knife every year or so.

There are plenty of “cheap” knives that cannot perform to decent standards and very few options for chefs who are passionate about cooking, need the right tools to assist them in their career or hobby but are not willing to overspend on a brand name. Get your KOTAI knife today for a lifetime of safe and delicious cooking.
