Wusaki Big One XL Knife with Leather Sheath

Wusaki Big One Serbian knife: power, style and versatility

The Wusaki Big One XL knife is built for those who like tools with some backbone. With its XL format, forged blade and raw look, it doesn't go unnoticed. Versatile, it goes with you to cut large chunks, slice raw or cooked boneless meat, chop fresh herbs, crush garlic or mince vegetables. It's an effective knife, pleasant to use and built for generous preparations. It's the perfect gift for cooks who love wide open spaces, hearty portions and convivial cooking.

A forged 1080 carbon steel blade

The Wusaki Big One has a 17.5cm blade in 1080 carbon steel. Thanks to its 0.8% carbon content, this steel offers a good level of hardness (58 HRC). This gives you a durably efficient edge and easy resharpening. The blade is hot-forged and full tang: it is shaped from a single block of steel. This construction reinforces its stability, strength and durability. Its rough-forged finish underlines its authentic style. Its broad shape and slightly curved edge let you cut, chop and mince with ease. Meat, fish, vegetables: it adapts to many preparations, both in the kitchen and at the barbecue.

A handle with a bold design

The handle of this Wusaki Big One knife stands out immediately for its looks. It's made of resin, with carbon fiber and decorative gold inclusions that give it plenty of depth and contrast against its black background color. The carbon fibers reinforce the whole, while the golden touches add an elegant, original finish. The handle is fixed with two stainless steel rivets and a central brass mosaic rivet, for a reliable, neat construction, as well as a highly appreciable aesthetic detail.

A leather sheath included

The knife comes with a leather sheath, handy for storage as well as transport. It effectively protects the blade and closes with a snap flap. Thanks to its loops, it can also be attached to a belt, which is especially useful for outdoor cooking or a barbecue.

Like any carbon steel knife, the Wusaki Big One needs suitable care. It should be washed by hand only, with a soft sponge and a mild soap. After cleaning, it's important to dry it immediately and store it in a dry place. Never leave it to soak or put it in the dishwasher. To preserve its cutting performance, regular sharpening with a suitable tool is recommended.

The Wusaki Big One knife for adventurous chefs

Use

• Cut with a straight, linear motion. Twisting motions damage the cutting edge and can break the blade.
• Use a wooden cutting board. Glass or marble dull the cutting edge over time.

Cleaning

• Wash by hand with a soft sponge and mild soap, then rinse with lukewarm water. Abrasive surfaces are not suitable for the steel.
• Oil the blade from time to time with a neutral mineral oil to protect it.

Sharpening

• Don't wait until the blade is completely dull: regular maintenance on a 1000-grit whetstone keeps an excellent cutting edge without removing too much material.
• Match the whetstone's grit to the condition of the blade — coarse grit to restore a very dull edge, fine grit to polish.
