The Cuisine::pro® iD3® BLACK SAMURAI™ Cleaver Knife (17 cm/6.5") has been designed and weighted to facilitate heavy chopping. A cleaver can take on heavier vegetables like different varieties of squash and root vegetables with more force than a chef's knife or santoku knife. In addition to breaking down tendons and bones, cleavers can also be used to pound, mince, dice, and slice a variety of other foods.

BRAND IDENTIFICATION

Cuisine::pro® iD3® BLACK SAMURAI™ knives from THE CUSTOM CHEF™ are crafted from the finest 420J2 Japanese steel. The Japanese steel blade construction was inspired by centuries-old manufacturing techniques favored by traditional Japanese artisans and samurai sword makers, to create a super-sharp edge that maintains greater edge retention. The blades are ice-hardened, ensuring superior strength and durability.

iD3® BLACK SAMURAI™ Japanese steel has been mined in the same Japanese region of Chuo-Ku Chiba since the middle of the last century. Every knife in the iD3® BLACK SAMURAI™ range has been designed and tested to meet Rockwell 53 specifications, ensuring blade hardness and optimal performance.

The Cuisine::pro® iD3® BLACK SAMURAI™ is considered a world first. Combining Japanese 420J2 steel with a matte black antibacterial ceramic coating, the knife is designed to be food-grade antibacterial, acid-resistant, and stain-resistant.

Cuisine::pro®'s MicroDot® technology is used exclusively on the iD3® knife range. MicroDot® technology is evident on the handles of the knives and is used to relieve the main pressure points in your hands, ensuring complete control and precision when slicing.
