Black-forged Bannou Chef's Knife Gift Set.
Shirogami white #1 steel. Japanese cherry handles.
Hand-forged on Tanegashima Island.

Two chef's knives in an attractive and practical paired set, beautifully presented in Tanegashima-themed gift-wrapping.

The Knives: Two hand-forged Tanegashima bannou all-purpose kitchen knives, 13cm and 15cm blade lengths, each black-forged warikomi blades in white-1-steel/nantetsu. Cherry handles.

The 13cm Bannou is a small knife. It's very good for fruit and excellent for use at the table but will surprise with its usefulness as a main knife for preparing meals. Good for singles and couples or an excellent supplementary knife for bigger families. Highly recommended for older users cooking for themselves who would benefit from using a light, compact blade for preparing small meals (because these knives cut so well they require very little strength in the wrist).

The 15cm Bannou offers a good combination of light weight, small handle and effortless cutting. Terrific for fish. Cuts bread beautifully. Highly recommended for singles, couples and small families.

Gift Box:  Velvet-lined card box, silver embossed lid. Dimensions 350mm x 150mm x 35mm. Gift-wrapped.
