Masahiro MV Honesuki

The Masahiro MV 6 in. (150mm) Honesuki is a wedge shaped knife that works great when cutting and deboning a chicken or many other types of butchering duties which require a heavier blade. The Honesuki originated in Japan, where specialist chicken restaurants needed a knife to break down whole chickens, it is particularly suitable for people who prepare poultry and meat. The Honesuki features a ‘reverse tanto tip’ / ‘clip point’ design which increases tip strength whilst still allowing it to easily pierce skin, and to also make precise cuts in tight spaces such as joints. In addition, it is similarly able turn quickly when cutting around and along the bone, and can also easily trim away connective tissue and fat with the sharp and precise tip area.

• The MV line by Masahiro is the model that sets the standard for stainless steel professional knives.The handle is made of laminated reinforced wood with antibacterial agents. The blade is made of high-carbon stainless steel "MBS-26," which is resistant to rust and has excellent sharpness durability. The weight of the knife feels good in your hand, and it is a well-balanced design that does not tire you out even after long hours of work.


• A single-edged blade is a knife with a back bevel on one side. The main benefit of a single sided blade is the taper of the blade comes to a finer edge; an added benefit of the single-sided blade is the ease of sharpening on stones, the majority of the sharpening process is done just on the face(front) side of the knife only a small amount of sharpening work is needed on the backside of the knife to straigten and align the edge.
