The Utility Knife (12 cm) is a versatile kitchen essential designed to bridge the gap between a paring knife and a chef’s knife. With its balanced size and narrow blade, it excels in tasks that require more precision than a chef’s knife and more strength than a paring knife — from slicing fruit and chopping vegetables to trimming small cuts of meat.

Forged with a three-layer construction and a core of MOVAX superior stainless steel — an advanced alloy of chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium — this knife delivers outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and cutting stability. It boasts a Rockwell hardness of 58 HRC and is hand-sharpened by expert craftsmen in Seki, Japan.

Handcrafted in the renowned knife-making city of Seki, Japan, and backed by over 700 years of Japanese blade-making tradition, the Blue Breeze Utility Knife offers precision and reliability in every cut.
