User questions & answers

Question:	when it says 8 inches, is that the length of the blade itself, or is that the blade plus the handle
Answer:	8 inches is the length of just the blade, handle not included in measurement
Question:	Is this from their Professional-S series
Answer:	No - The S Series are made in Germany, do not have the rivets in the handle, and cost almost 2x of the Classic Series. As others have pointed out, you still get a great knife for the price. My S knives still need to be honed and sharpened regularly.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this knife for the left or right hand
Answer:	I looked all over the label of this product; there is no indication of any expiration date.
Question:	Can u post the back of the package? Is this just for use in water, or can it be put around the grass edge of property
Answer:	Yes
Question:	May I know any expiry date for this product
Answer:	Contact the seller directly.
Question:	Will this help with sawfly
Answer:	The block has two sets of slots for blades; the lower two are roughly 2 1/16 inches (5.3cm) while the upper two are roughly 1 5/16 inches (3.3cm). There is also a 15/16 inch (2.4cm) wide hole underneath the blade slots that I believe is meant to fit a pair of Shun's kitchen shears. The depth of the slots also seems to vary somewhat as the included 8 inch chef's knife fits comfortably in the higher of the two larger slots but hits the end of the lower one.
Question:	order no
Answer:	Hi, it's only on the left side. Regards, Carlos.

Product description

honed and hand-finished by the most skilled artisans, the knives' laser-controlled edge is incredibly sharp. The sturdy bolster provides the right balance and acts as a finger guard. Precision-forged from a single piece of solid steel, these three rivet handle knives deliver optimum balance and safe handling. Professional chefs worldwide trust the tradition and quality of these impressive knives. This is a classic French chef's knife, with a broad blade and a curved cutting edge for rocking through a chopping task. The 8-inch blade suits most cooks, though those with small hands might prefer a 6-inch knife, and those with bigger hands might choose a 10-inch one. Classic three-rivet handles distinguish Pro S from Henckels's other quality lines, TwinStar, Five Star, and Four Star. Pro S handles are heavier and its knives less weight-forward. The steel used in the Pro S line is identical to that of the Five and Four Star lines. High-tech welding of knives this size and larger combines three steel types into what appears to be a single piece, so a knife's parts have distinct characteristics: a hard edge; a strong, stain-resistant bolster; and a stain- and corrosion-resistant tang. Traditionalists insist on single-piece forging for strength, but Henckels says the invisible welds are actually stronger than the steel. While this chef's knife is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack From the Manufacturer A Reliable Standard in Knife Construction Twin Pro S knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive-formula, high-carbon, no-stain steel under the all-new Sigmaforge standard.

CARE AND USE

Be good to your knives and they’ll be good to you. Following these simple guidelines will ensure that you get the longest life out of your knife!



CLEANING

Victorinox Swiss Army recommends washing all knives by hand. For best results, hand wash your knives with a soapy cloth and dry immediately.

While Fibrox Pro knives are dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing as dishwashers are designed to spray water at a relatively high pressure, which can jostle the silverware and cause the knives to collide, dulling the edge.



SHARPENING

For optimum performance, knives should be honed after every couple of uses. Proper and frequent use of a honing steel will keep your knives sharper and performing at their best.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this the same knife as the Victorinox 5 inch mini chef's knife, with 1 1/4in width at handle (model 40552) Amazon sells for about $1 less
Answer:	From what I could roughly measure (caliper and trigonometry), the original edge relief ("back bevel") is around 14 degrees in mine, and the blade is quite thin already at the start of the relief (0.44mm), so it is easy to go without a bevel+back bevel and sharpen at 15. You can however work with a microbevel at 20, quickly retouching between resharpenings.
Question:	What's the tang situation with the Victorinox? I'd like to know if the metal goes all the way to the base of the handle
Answer:	It's actually an 8 inch blade. They are advertising a 10 inch blade, but it's a bait and switch--you are getting the smaller (cheaper product). Like paying for an Acura and getting a Honda. I provided picture of the conflicting marking on the packaging (one saying 10 inch and a barcode for the 8 inch) and I submitted a picture of ruler measuring the blade, so buyers can see. It's a good knife, but buy it from a different seller who will send you what you are paying for.
Question:	what angle is the blade for sharpening? 15 degrees or 20 degrees
Answer:	This knife is right hand. Best regards.
Question:	The 10-inche, it is just the blade, o with the handle?? what is 10 inches measured front to

Product description

The Edo Usuba is reminiscent of a small cleaver and has a blunt tip that comes in handy for such things as cutting the eye out of a potato. The Usuba is hefty enough to chop through heavy root vegetables with a blade that can thinly slice delicate tomatoes. One of the most sought after of knives and fast becoming a new essential companion to the popular chef's knife is the traditional Japanese vegetable knife known as the Usuba. Reminiscent of a small cleaver, this knife is cherished for its ability to chop through root vegetables to thinly slicing delicate tomatoes. From prepping greens for a salad to chopping vegetables for a main dish, the simplest of tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.

Our VG-10 Hammered Damascus Usuba Knife is forged with a traditional straight blade that smoothly cuts paper thin slices and can quickly chop through hearty vegetables. Forged and hammered with 46 layers of steel in the Damascus tradition with a VG-10 Core, this knife is complimented with a traditional Japanese style handcrafted Octagonal Red Pine Handle. A protective wooden sheath called a "Saya" is included, which protects the knife and adds to its appearance when not in use. The hammered texture of the blade eliminates friction and keeps food from sticking to the blade. Every knife from Yoshihiro is handcrafted by master artisans creating a unique one of a kind work of art.

No sharp spine, beautifully ground and finished, sharp from the packaging, handles very well, etc... Yes, made in Taiwan of exceptionally good German steel, and I will continue to buy these for now on.

Precision forged German steel

High carbon, no-stain German cutlery steel resists rust, corrosion, and discoloration. One-piece precision forged construction and a rounded spine gives every Renaissance knife superior strength and durability. Taper-ground edge allows for added stability, easy honing, long lasting sharpness, and increased efficiency when cutting and chopping.

Ergonomic Delrin handles

Triple-riveted ergonomic Delrin handle provides superior comfort. Delrin will not break down from exposure to kitchen oils and is able to withstand hot and cold temperatures. A shorter bolster exposes the full edge of the blade, making it easier to sharpen. The bolster strengthens the knife, adds durability, and provides excellent balance when cutting food.

Care and handling of Renaissance cutlery

The performance of a knife can be diminished if not cared for properly.

Cutlery should never be washed in a dishwasher because intense heat and harsh detergents may cause the handle to deteriorate. Carefully wash by hand with soap and warm water, rinse and dry with a soft towel. Do not soak or submerge in water for long periods of time or use chlorine bleach because it can pit and discolor the blade. Avoid soaking in aluminum or stainless steel sinks because these metals may cause pitting on the blade.

Store in a cutlery block or sheath to preserve the cutting edges and prevent injuries.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where is it made
Answer:	I was all prepared to tell you how much I loved these knives and I do love them. This is my go-to knife for bread, cheese, and tomatoes. However, I have no idea where they are made. Sorry.
Question:	Is it made in China
Answer:	Made in TAIWAN.
Question:	How is this different from the Genesis series blade
Answer:	These are bare bones blades meant to get beat up doing rugged tasks like boning and quartering animal carcasses. When you need a knife that you can rely on working on a line this is the type you want to grab. When you're looking for fine cuts and sophistication you'll want a higher quality blade like the genesis. If you notice, the taper on these commercial blades is a bit sharper; they do this to save money because they don't have to feather all the way back to the spine. It makes the blade look cheap but that's part of what ultimately makes these knives invaluable in commercial kitchens.
Question:	Can the mercer culinary ultimate white 11-inch slicer, wavy edge be sharpened
Answer:	Of course! but not with traditional whetstones. All knives can be sharpened, you just have to have the correct tools in order to do it. Just look for a serrated edge sharpener, I'm sure they sell them on amazon.
