Product description
-
What’s the difference between the AUS‑10 and ACUTO440 versions?
Both use high‑carbon Japanese stainless steel, so you can expect a razor‑sharp edge and excellent durability. The ACUTO440 blade has even greater rust resistance and cen even be put in the dishwasher, but both steels hold their edge for a long time.
-
Can I put this knife in the dishwasher?
We recommend hand‑washing to protect the edge, but the ACUTO440 version can handle an occasional dishwasher cycle.
-
Does it work for left‑handed users?
Yes. The knife features a 50/50 symmetric grind at 15° per side, making it comfortable for both right- and left‑handed cooks.
-
How often do I need to sharpen it?
Thanks to the high‑carbon steel and 58 HRC hardness, the edge stays sharp for months under normal home use. Regular honing will help maintain it; sharpening every few months is usually sufficient.
-
What’s the sloped bolster for?
It encourages the correct pinch grip and keeps your fingers away from the heel of the blade, making it both comfortable and safer to use.
