Every kitchen has a small-job knife, the one you grab without thinking for a clove of garlic, an apple, a lemon squeezed over dinner. This is that knife, built from the same steel and wood as the rest of the range so it's not the cheap afterthought most sets treat it as.
67 layers of Damascus steel around an AUS-10 core, with a natural African Mkuruti wood handle sized for close, precise work rather than power cuts.
- Blade: 13 cm (5 in), 67-layer Damascus steel, AUS-10 core
- Total length: 25.7 cm, weight 106 g
- Handle: Natural African Mkuruti Wood
- Arrives sharp, engraved on the left face of the blade, in a magnetic-closure gift box
Specifications
67-layer Damascus steel, AUS-10 core. Handle in natural African Mkuruti wood. Engraved with a small Asiro mark on the left face of the blade only. Arrives in a magnetic-closure gift box.
Care
Wash by hand and dry it before putting it away. That's the one habit that matters; everything else is normal kitchen sense. A few passes on a honing rod before cooking brings the edge back if it starts to feel less sharp.
Shipping and returns
Free shipping within the Netherlands, dispatched in 1 to 2 business days. You have 14 days to return it; you cover return shipping, and a used knife is refunded minus a deduction for any diminished value.
Asiro next to an everyday kitchen knife
What you notice when you cook, next to the stainless knife most kitchens already have.

Usually 15° to 20° on each side
Edge retention
Harder steel holds its edge longer between sharpenings.
60 ±2 HRC hardness
Around 54 to 57 HRC

A high-carbon stainless core, made for a fine edge that lasts.

Everyday care
The one habit worth keeping, and it takes seconds.
