Furi Rachael Ray 7-Inch Sharp-and-Store Self-Sharpening Knife with Stand
Created by Furi in cooperation with celebrity chef Rachael Ray, the Gusto Grip line of knives are well-made, user-friendly, and fun to look at as a bonus. Designed to retain sharpness and maximize efficiency on the cutting board, Gusto Grip blades are fashioned from a single forged piece of premium CrMoV German stainless steel. The polypropylene and rubber handles in cheerful bright orange have a comfortable reverse wedge shape that minimizes the need for squeezing and molds ergonomically to the hand for slip-resistant performance. Even more, antimicrobial protection on the grip limits bacteria, mold, and deterioration.This Gusto Grip 7-inch santoku knife combines the features of a cleaver with a chef's knife. The unit's curved blade helps the rocking motion used for chopping, while its wide blade surface makes it easy to crush garlic or scoop chopped onions off a cutting board for convenient transport to the frying pan. Best of all, the knife comes with a storage stand that doubles as a knife sharpener, complete with patented Furi honing fingers, which means the knife gets sharpened and honed automatically, every time it gets put back or removed from its protective stand. The knife and stand can be stored in a drawer or, better yet, mounted vertically or horizontally in a convenient location like inside a cupboard or at a work station with the included mounting bracket. A finger groove on the knife's handle provides added control, and the unit should be hand-washed only. Designed for professional and home chefs alike, the 7-inch santoku knife in its stand measures approximately 12-1/2 by 2 by 3-1/2 inches and carries a limited lifetime warranty.
