Thang, Straight Blade

TWO SIZES STANDARD HANDLE WITH RIVETS

Just like its name, that's how it is: straight, although it has a very gentle curve to the blade too. A sincere knife that can be used in many ways thanks to its straight and, above all, super thin blade. It is particularly flexible, extremely sharp and connected to the handle by rivets. For us, it is the entry-level knife because its shape makes it seem familiar. Very precise cuts are possible with THANG. The surface in the black area is less susceptible to visible stains, such as those caused by essential oils. For very hard and large cuts, please use our knives with the thick, polished blades.

On our own behalf: The knives are made entirely by hand by small family businesses in Vietnam. A comparison with the quality of CNC-lasered and sharpened mass-produced goods is unnecessary.  Each handle is carved by hand and the blades are cut out with large tin snips without punching. The knives may have small blemishes. However, these do not reduce their suitability for everyday use and operational strength, but rather enhance their individuality and specialness. Please take this into account when making your purchase decision!
