Handle material: olive wood

This **Due Cigni Hakucho usuba** is a version of the nakiri knife. A typical Japanese vegetable knife. The tip of the edge is slightly curved to make sure you can also cut perfect strips of vegetables from an angle. Although the shape might suggest it, we are not dealing with a cleaver. After all, the steel is a lot thinner which means that chopping could seriously damage the blade.


## Due Cigni Hakucho handle


The classic Japanese handle is made from olive wood. The soft, light-brown colour and the fragrance of olives radiate luxury. The flaming pattern adds an extra dimension to the handle. The handle was secured to the full-tang blade with three stunning rivets. To maintain the stunning colour of the olive wood, and to not affect the sharpness of the blade, we recommend cleaning this knife by hand. Dry it after cleaning it to prevent discolourations or tears and to make sure the wood doesn't bend. 


## Due Cigni Hakucho blade


The blade is made from Nitro-B 4119 stainless steel.  This is a type of steel with a high nitrogen content. It has an extremely thin microstructure and is highly resistant to corrosion. This type of steel is also easy to sharpen at home, should it lose some of its sharpness over time. The beautiful Kanji characters on the blade provide the finishing touch.

## Due Cigni Hakucho collection


The kitchen knives from the Due Cigni Hakucho collection were designed by Oreste Frati. The founder of FOX Knives. In addition to being the owner of Fox Knives, he is a gifted designer. He used the Japanese style as the basis for this collection of kitchen knives. The stunning markings on the blade emphasize this, and add to the design. The knives are produced in Italy.

op zoek naar een usuba of nakiri die niet overdreven veel kost. Deze ook nog in mijn favoriete olijfhout. Prachtig mes dat door groenten glijdt als een heet mes door boter. Voorheen gebruikte ik er een koksmes of een santuko voor, maar die liggen nu aan de kant. Als eerste grijp ik nu de twee zwanen usuba, al is het voor mijn gevoel een beetje vreemd om een Japans mes gemaakt in Italië te gebruiken
