Description
Ryusen Tanganryu series are designed for both professional chef and homecook, a top line of Ryusen and completely handmade in Echisen prefecture in Japan.
The 2017 ‘TG’ edition has won a “Good design award” for the handle, specially designed for optimal grip, feeling and balance.
In collaboration with Chef Thomas Buhner from restaurant La Vie, this special edition Mikan (madarin ) series has a handle made of orange micarta, which is a cotton mixed with a special glue paste and under high pressure compressed together.
Micarta is long lasting, will not get slippery and can withstand high temperatures.
The blade is handforged a 63 layers of stainless steel, with a special Japanese VG10 core. The outside is mirror polished and hammered. Hammered patterns create a layer of air between ingredients and the knife to prevent food from sticking to the blade.
All TG knives are finished and handsharpenend according to Ryusen’s high standards of expertise.
Notice: Always dry your knives before storage.
