We are impressed by this series: its excellent SLD steel, beautiful finish, very thin blades and highly attractive price earn our warmest recommendation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSLD is a highly wear-resistant steel that retains its edge for a very long time, particularly when it is not polished too highly and the edge is allowed to retain some tooth. We recommend finishing at 1000 to 3000 grit for sharpness, bite and long edge retention. SLD is SEMI-STAINLESS, which means it resists rust well but is not 100% stainless. The core steel will therefore darken slightly over time, creating a beautiful contrast between the core steel and the cladding.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eImportant:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKeep in mind that the edge is hard and thin. Take care not to subject it to stress, especially lateral stress. When using a Japanese knife with a thin blade, the edge must always be moving as you cut. Never press the blade through an ingredient while the edge is stationary. Do not twist or rock the blade to prise the ingredient apart.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hatsukokoro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58781183541596,"sku":"Hikari-125PT-K-tip","price":87.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/5556\/6940\/files\/hikari-petty-ktip.jpg?v=1787579765","url":"https:\/\/stage.cleancut.eu\/products\/hatsukokoro-hikari-sld-petty-110mm","provider":"Cleancut","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
