{"product_id":"okeya-150-mm-utility-gin-3","title":"Okeya 150 mm Utility Gin-3","description":"\u003cp\u003eOkeya is a small forge located in Miki-City, Japan. Originally specialized more in forging 'Kogatana' knives, which are small handy multipurpose knives, but over recent years have started to move further into kitchen knives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese knives are built in 3 layers with Gin-3 as core steel, surrounded by a stainless cladding. They are then finished with a beautiful tsuchime finish (hammer blow) on the top of the blade, which meets a nice wide bevel grind that tapers nicely, down towards the edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGin-3 can almost be called a stainless 'carbon steel' type. It has exactly 13% Chromium in it, which is the dividing line between stainless bearings and carbon steel bearings, i.e. they get many of the same properties as carbon steel, such as, for example, it is easy to grind and has a really good biting edge, but without it rusting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knife here is a so-called \u003cem\u003eutility knife\u003c\/em\u003e of 15 cm. After the chef's knife, it is probably the most universal knife of the common types, and can also replace a chef's knife in many ways. It is not quite as tall as a chef's knife and is also shorter, making it very easy to handle. It can be used for slicing vegetables and cutting smaller pieces of meat - and it is fantastically good for trimming meat as well as finer cutting tasks in fruit and vegetables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 562px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 26.75px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 166.719px; height: 26.75px;\"\u003eBrand\/series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 375.281px; height: 26.75px;\"\u003eOkeya\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 16px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 166.719px; height: 16px;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 375.281px; height: 16px;\"\u003eUtility\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 33px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 166.719px; height: 33px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eForging and steel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 375.281px; height: 33px;\"\u003eGin-3 \u0026amp; Stainless Cladding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 33px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 166.719px; height: 33px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrinding\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 375.281px; height: 33px;\"\u003e50\/50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 33px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 166.719px; height: 33px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandle type\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 375.281px; height: 33px;\"\u003eOctagonal (WA) Handle in Walnut\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 33px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 166.719px; height: 33px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStainless\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 375.281px; height: 33px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eYes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 33px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 166.719px; height: 33px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardness\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 375.281px; height: 33px;\"\u003e60-62\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 134px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 166.719px; height: 134px;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e(May vary slightly because the knife is handmade)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 375.281px; height: 134px;\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eLength: 150mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeight: 31mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeight: 94g.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWidth out of the handle: 2mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe knife must never be washed in a dishwasher, must not cut into hard objects such as bones, cartilage, bones and frozen objects as well as hard cheeses.
