This store has earned the following certifications.
The TUO brand, established in 2009, has focused on the R&D and design of forward-looking, aesthetically-pleasing kitchen knives. With a commitment to quality and design, TUO has led the trend in knife aesthetics and has been recognized and recommended by millions of families and professional chefs worldwide.
Crafted through a meticulous 45-step process, TUO's knives undergo laser welding, grinding, polishing, and straightening of the blade by experienced craftsmen. Each knife must pass a rigorous 16-step inspection process, resulting in a 99.85% finish rate.
TUO's 6.5" usuba knife is a versatile Japanese-style knife, perfect for a variety of kitchen tasks such as shredding carrots, cutting tomatoes, dicing onions, chopping melons, or peeling avocados. This nakiri knife is an essential tool for busy kitchens.
The knife's blade is made from German high-carbon stainless steel, ensuring it won't rust over time and is easy to resharpen. The steel has been precisely processed with high-tech vacuum heat treatment, reaching a hardness of HRC56±2 for exceptional performance and edge retention. The blade is designed to be highly durable, with minimal risk of chipping.
The full-tang handle is crafted from TUO's patent-pending high-density Pakkawood composite, which is significantly more stable and sanitary than traditional wood handles. Regardless of the kitchen environment, the handle will not shrink, expand, or crack, ensuring food safety.
The ergonomic full-tang handle design provides exceptional comfort and durability. The striking grain of the polished Pakkawood (sourced from Africa) handle, combined with the gentle curve of the blade, creates an aesthetically pleasing and well-balanced tool. The carefully polished bolster of the handle allows for a secure pinch grip.
TUO offers a lifetime guarantee against manufacturer defects, ensuring 100% customer satisfaction. Packaged in a luxury case, the TUO 6.5" usuba knife makes a wise choice as a gift.
