About the Shape - Garasuki

The Garasuki knife is a type of Japanese boning knife that is primarily used for butchery tasks, especially in the preparation of poultry. It originated in Japan, where specialist chicken restaurants needed a knife to break down whole chickens.The Garasuki knife shares the same overall blade profile as the Honesuki, another Japanese knife, but it is larger, thicker, and heavier, making it a better choice when dealing with larger sizes of poultry and cuts of meat. It features a unique and distinctive design, with a single-edge blade, a hallmark of traditional Japanese knife-making.

About the Steel - Molybdenum

Molybdenum refers to steel that is alloyed with molybdenum (Mo), which increases the strength of the steel at high temperatures, making it more resistant to wear and tear. It also improves the grain structure of the steel, which enhances its resistance to corrosion. This makes molybdenum steel a popular choice for kitchen knives, as these properties are highly beneficial for a tool that is frequently used and exposed to various elements.
