Masahiro Bwh Utilit

BWH is a series of knives modeled on the MV-H line. Molybdenum-vanadium, high-carbon, stainless steel MBS-26 was also used, which was subjected to a three-stage hardening process until it reached a hardness of 58-59 HRC. Each blade has been perfected by craftsmen with over 30 years of experience, bringing Masahiro knives to a level of incredible, unparalleled sharpness.

The handle was made of wood called Black Pakkawood, whose numerous layers were pressed under high pressure and at high temperature into a uniform, very durable, moisture and water resistant material. The wooden handle with an antibacterial coating is as easy to care for as plastic, and is secured with three perfectly placed and polished rivets.

The knives from this series are sharpened on both sides, but unlike most Western manufacturers, Masahiro sharpens them asymmetrically 80/20. This means that the cutting edge is moved to one of the sides along the knife axis. The benefits of using asymmetric sharpening include a cutting edge that is up to 35% thinner compared to a symmetrical blade, making it much sharper.

Useful information:

• All Masahiro knives are extremely sharp, so we recommend using them with due care.
• Masahiro knives should not be used to cut frozen products (except for the series intended for this purpose).
• Do not use knives for purposes other than food.
• Use wooden or plastic cutting boards for cutting.
• Knives should not be washed in dishwashers as they damage the cutting edge.
• Wash the knife in warm water with dishwashing liquid.
• After washing, wipe the knife dry.
