Kori Artisan Prep Knife 5.5"(7714-14)

The Kori Artisan 5.5" Prep Knife is a wide-bladed utility knife, perfect for tasks like slicing, chopping fruits and veggies, portioning out meats, and slicing cheeses. It's a great companion to your chef and paring knife —it tackles the jobs that are too big for the paring knife and too small for the chef knife. The modified angle bolster is angled to encourage a proper pinch grip on the knife, giving the user mastery over their blade, from tip to heel! Canadian designed Kori Artisan knives are handcrafted for beauty, function, and superior performance. Taking over 60 steps to complete each knife, Kori Artisan uses advanced materials and crafting techniques to ensure your knives last you years. Each blade features a Japanese VG10 core, surrounded by 36 layers of hammered steel to create that beautiful layered Damascus pattern. The final point of contact is the handle. Using a beautiful, riveted canvas linen micarta handle, the texture provides the ultimate tactile sensation and control. It is completed by a traditional mosaic pin and end cap. Keep your Kori Artisan knives sharp and well-maintained by honing and sharpening regularly using one of our wide selection of whetstones.
