KAI Carving Knife 20 cm Seki Magoroku Redwood MGR-0200L

The Seki Magoroku Redwood series is a collection of chef’s knives made from robust stainless steel and defined by classic Japanese design elements. The series includes both single bevel and double bevel blades, all sharing the same qualities of stability, balanced performance, and long lasting sharpness. The design blends a minimal, clean form with traditional Japanese aesthetics. The name “Redwood” comes from the distinctive red pakkawood used for the handle, which is highly resistant to moisture.
