The serrated edge is ideal knife for slicing salami, sausage, avocados and small soft or hard-crusted bread. GLOBAL UKON is the perfect synthesis of Japan's knife-making heritage, modern design and superior performance. Details like a dual surface handle, an ambidextrous thumb rest and a thicker blade with a noticeably sharper edge are indications of UKON's technical innovation.
