The Kai Wasabi Black series are Japanese designed knives feature a polished stainless steel blade with a hardness of 58 ± 1 HRC that lend your kitchen the unmistakable Far Eastern flair.

The handle developed for the Wasabi series offers the optimum hygiene thanks to the special combination of bamboo powder and polypropylene, assisted by the natural anti-bacterial properties of the bamboo parts. In contrast to the traditional Japanese wood handle the black handle is not inserted but embraces the blade completely. Thus the blade is closely connected to the handle, not allowing dirt to settle in any gaps – making the knives suitable for professional service kitchens.
