Kai Wasabi

Knives for right-handers

The Wasabi knife series is inspired by Zen Buddhism and demonstrates pure Japanese aesthetics.

Ham knife

With its pointed, long and narrow blade, the ham knife makes it easy to remove the skin from fish or poultry. The sharp blade cuts meat into thin, smooth slices or cubes without tearing the fibres.

Authentic blade

The polished 23 cm long blade made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel was developed in Japan. The design integrates an unmistakable, Far Eastern flair with a practical hardness of 58±1 HRC for your daily cutting tasks.

Anti-bacterial handle

The handle was specially developed for the Wasabi series and offers a natural antibacterial effect thanks to its special combination of bamboo powder and polypropylene. The optimum hygiene properties are primarily due to the bamboo content of the handle. The black, 12.6 cm long handle completely encloses the blade, in contrast to the traditional Japanese wooden handle, which is attached. This ensures that the blade is firmly attached to the handle and prevents dirt from becoming embedded in small niches. All these features make the wasabi knife suitable for use in commercial kitchens.
