Hand wash is recommended to maintain quality.

Utility knives with double-sided blades are, as their name suggests, suitable for all purposes. Cleaning, peeling, cutting vegetables and fish. Chunk off a salami? The utility knife will take care of that. 
In the land of the rising sun, in contrast to German knives, the primary focus is on the sharp blade.
A high degree of hardness with great sharpness, while the handles are not of such adequate importance as compared to a German knife. A traditional shape, the cross-section of which resembles a chestnut with a more or less expensive ferrule, in this case made of stainless steel, is shown here.
In this series, however, the blades are not just inserted, as is usually the case with Japanese knives, but the handles completely encase the blade. This prevents any contamination from getting stuck.
The WASABI BLACK series includes seventeen different blade shapes. They originated in Japanese commercial kitchens, where reliable functionality, sharpness, minimalist design and durability in continuous use are required. Added to this is an easy-care, non-slip plastic handle at an affordable price.
