Examples: pumpkin, lotus root, fish bones, bones, frozen foods, etc. ★ Use ceramic knives for soft ingredients that are difficult to cut and that you don't want to come into contact with metal. Examples: sashimi, cake, soft bread, freshly baked bread, fatty meat, chicken skin, fruits, etc. ★ Clean the ceramic blade surface with kitchen bleach if it gets dirty. ♦ Due to shipping costs, we will cut the packaging shorter for shipping. Thank you for your understanding. ★ Reason for outlet special price This is the same product that is normally sold at a manufacturer's suggested retail price of 11,000 yen. Products with scratches or color unevenness on the blade surface during the sintering process of the ceramic are sold as outlet special price items. There are no problems with performance or safety, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. #SantokuKnife #CeramicKnife #MadeInJapan #Sharpness #LightweightAndRustproof #SpecialPrice #TrialSpecialPriceKnife #MADE IN JAPAN #FOREVER #Forever #SilverAntibacterialCeramic
