Product Overview

The AB5165 is the broad, scalloped Chinese chef’s knife in KAI’s Sekimagoroku Shoso range. Its 165-mm blade has a rectangular profile and a row of oval indentations, while the all-metal construction carries the same silver finish from blade to grip.

The handle is 18-8 stainless steel with a diamond-patterned surface; the blade is 5CR15MoV stainless steel with a double-sided edge. At 200 g, this is an individual preparation knife with a distinct shape from the matching Shoso santoku and chef’s knives. Hand wash and dry it after use.

A broader shape within the Shoso range

The rectangular blade and oval indentations distinguish this model from the narrower, pointed Shoso chef’s knives. Choose it for the preparation work that calls for this profile, rather than selecting a knife only by blade length.

A continuous all-metal design

The diamond-patterned grip meets the blade without a separate wooden or plastic handle. The silver finish keeps the knife visually consistent with the Shoso santoku and chef’s knives while the blade shape remains distinct.

Keep the finish and edge ready for service

Wash the knife by hand and dry it after use. Store it so the blade does not strike other utensils; the cutting edge needs protection even when the handle and blade are both stainless steel.
