The 150mm utility knife offers a narrower option for trimming fats, portioning produce and slicing cheese. The 80mm paring knife is recorded for peeling, coring and detailed fruit or vegetable garnishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe existing listing describes these knives as handcrafted in Seki, Japan. The Classic design combines patterned Damascus blade faces with dark D-shaped handles. Pakkawood is an engineered handle material rather than solid ebony. Neither Damascus patterning nor stainless steel guarantees frictionless cutting or immunity to corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a second-hand set, not a new retail set. Confirm the number of knives, model markings, dimensions, steel and condition before publication. The recorded factory specifications do not establish that a pre-owned edge retains its original angle, and no pristine-condition or remaining-warranty claim is made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only with warm water and mild detergent.
