Low price in this case does not mean saving on materials and technologies.

First of all, this is a great desire to equip as many amateurs as possible with a decent and affordable tool.

An excellent choice, superior to competitors in terms of consumer properties.

The blade profile of this Gyuto Narihira is proprietary, the same as, for example, in the Tojiro DP or Tojiro PRO series.

The blade is made of corrosion-resistant steel 4116 (X50CrMoV 15) hardened to a hardness of 56-57 HRC on the Rockwell scale.

Fuji Cutlery Narihira products are manufactured in China under the control of Fuji Cutlery Co., a Japanese company headquartered in Tsubame, Niigata Prefecture.

This is the enterprise that created and owns the rights to the brand.

Blade grind is thin and symmetrical, so the ability to cut well is maintained for a long time, thanks to the geometry of the slopes.

The handle is medium, with an oval cross-section, providing a secure grip and controllability.

The matte, non-slip surface, with a precise fit, creates the impression of complete unity of the structure.

There are no gaps or irregularities, and the velvety roughness confidently destroys the stereotype about the unreliability of holding steel handles.

Recommendations for handling, care and storage

By adhering to these simple rules, the owner will receive extremely positive emotions using his set.

A quality item, if treated with respect, will last for decades, requiring only a few times a year, scheduled restoration of sharpness.
