Japanese steak knives deliver restaurant-quality cutting performance at the dinner table. These knives feature slim blades between 110mm and 130mm in length. VG-10 steel cores maintain razor-sharp edges through hundreds of meals. Sets typically include 4, 6, or 8 matching knives in presentation boxes. Serrated and straight-edge versions both slice cooked meats effortlessly. Pakkawood handles provide comfortable grip during extended dining. Many sets feature full-tang construction for superior balance. Professional chefs prefer these over Western steak knives for cleaner cuts.
