Following the standards of Japanese professional chefs, the Chroma Haiku Pro HP5 Fish Knife 6″ reflects the craftsmanship of the Japanese knife-making tradition. Forged from two types of steel, this chef knife boasts a blade made from extremely hard high carbon-content steel while soft steel lends support to the sharp steel blade. To offer a comfortable grip and better control, this fish knife is built with a Honoki wood handle that molds to the shape of your hand over time. To ensure lifelong reliability, this knife requires special care and should only be washed by hand. – HP5 – 1 – A75-2
