Masahiro MV-H knives are produced by Masahiro Co., Ltd. in Seki, Japan.
Masahiro knives are amazingly light weight, yet perfectly balanced. The
handle is a composition plastic handle which is remarkably durable and
much more practical and longer lasting than a laminated wood handle. The
composite handle is resistant to bacteria which keeps the knife very hygienic
in daily use. The handles are a three rivet design and use a very wide
full tang almost as wide as the handles themselves. This provides plenty
of room for the rivets and still allows room for the handle to cover the
tang for an incredibly smooth, seamless rounded handle that feels great
in your hand. Limited Lifetime Warranty, Made in Japan.
