Kai Seki Magoroku Hammered Chef Knife - 210mm
The Kai Seki Magoroku Hammered Chef Knife is a versatile 210mm gyuto — an all-purpose kitchen workhorse for slicing, dicing, and chopping meat, fish, and vegetables, with the extra length suited to larger ingredients. The hammered finish is a functional feature as much as a visual one, helping food release cleanly from the blade.
What's Included
- 1 x Kai Seki Magoroku Hammered Chef Knife - 210mm
Also available with a 180mm blade, or as part of the Hammered 3-Piece Knife Set. Pairs with the Seki Multi Size Knife Guard for safe storage in a drawer or knife roll.
Key Features
- Tsuchime (Hammered) Finish: The beautiful hand-hammered texture creates small air pockets between the blade and the food, significantly reducing drag and preventing ingredients from sticking.
- High-Performance Steel: The blade is forged from high-carbon stainless steel, providing a razor-sharp edge with excellent durability and corrosion resistance.
- Durable Laminated Handle: The ergonomic, Western-style handle is crafted from strengthened laminated wood, offering a comfortable, secure grip and excellent water resistance.
- Longer Blade Profile: The 210mm length suits larger vegetables, roasts, and bulk prep while remaining balanced for everyday kitchen tasks.
Care Instructions
- Hand wash with warm water and mild detergent straight after use, then dry thoroughly before storing.
- Not dishwasher safe — heat and harsh detergents damage the edge and wooden handle.
- Do not cut frozen food or bones, and avoid twisting the blade.
- Sharpen regularly with a whetstone or knife sharpener to maintain the edge.
