The Misuzu is a  versatile, all-purpose kitchen knife that is 9" long and brilliant for the preparation of meat, fish, or vegetables. The blade is composed of layers of softer steal wrapped around a core of hardened steel that is exposed only on the cutting edge. This makes the blade resistant to corrosion and helps to maintain strength and durability.
