Common Questions
Q: Is this knife suitable for slicing large roasts and whole fish?
A: Yes. The 240mm edge length and sujihiki design minimize drag, enabling cleaner, more precise cuts through larger foods without tearing.
Q: How should I care for the Rainbow Damascus finish?
A: Handwash the blade with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly. Store it safely to avoid contact with harder objects, and occasionally apply a light coat of food-grade oil if needed.
