Misono UX10 Series Gyuto

The UX10 is crafted from high-purity Swedish stainless steel, which is specifically engineered to mimic the edge retention and sharpness of carbon steel while maintaining excellent rust resistance. It offers the performance benefits of a high-maintenance blade with the convenience of stainless steel.

The 70/30 asymmetrical grind is designed to improve cutting precision and food release. While it is technically a double-bevel knife, it favors right-handed users, providing a sharper, more controlled cut that helps the blade glide through ingredients with less resistance.

No, the Misono UX10 is not dishwasher safe. To protect the integrity of the high-performance steel and the Pakkawood handle, you should always hand wash and dry the knife immediately after use.

With a hardness rating of 59-60 HRC, this knife holds an edge exceptionally well, meaning you won't need to sharpen it as frequently as softer knives. When it does need maintenance, a standard whetstone is recommended to preserve the precision of the 70/30 grind.

Yes, the ergonomic Pakkawood handle is designed for comfort and durability. Combined with the knife's balanced weight, it reduces hand fatigue, making it well-suited for extended periods of slicing, dicing, and chopping.
