To address the humid climate of Taiwanese homes, Yè Tiān utilizes high-hardness stainless steel combined with composite steel technology, creating a blade that is both sharp and remarkably durable. This allows everyday users to experience professional-grade cutting performance with peace of mind, while minimizing the need for complex knife care. https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15955280.jpg https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15936501.jpg San-Gō steel is a composite steel technique originating from Japan. It features tough outer steel layers that protect the inner high-hardness steel core, achieving a balance of toughness on the outside and hardness within. This protects the inner steel, which is hard and sharp but more brittle, allowing the knife to possess both sharpness and durability. It is the key technology for bringing professional-grade knives into the home. https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15955285.jpg https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15962482.gif Each Yè Tiān knife is hand-sharpened and beveled by skilled artisans. Their accumulated experience is a technique that automated machines cannot replicate. https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/16672901.jpg https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15012764.jpg https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15012765.jpg https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15382639.jpg https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/16642779.png Product Specifications ● Yè Tiān No. 3 Kitchen Knife Dimensions: ● Overall Length - 28.5cm ● Blade Length - 18cm ● Blade Width - 9.2cm (measured at widest point) ● Thickness - 3.5mm (measured at the spine) ● Weight - 462g ● Yè Tiān No. 4 Kitchen Knife Dimensions: ● Overall Length - 27cm ● Blade Length - 16.4cm ● Blade Width - 7.7cm (measured at widest point) ● Thickness - 3.5mm (measured at the spine) ● Weight - 388.7g ● Steel Type - Composite Steel ● Steel Material - Core: 9Cr18MoV steel; Outer Layer: 430 stainless steel ● Handle Material - Laminated wood ※ Yè Tiān kitchen knives are hand-ground, and there may be slight variations in weight, dimensions, and wood color.
