Masamoto VG Line
Masamoto’s VG series is made from Hyper Molybdenum Vanadium steel and was rated #1 Hybrid Chef’s Knife by Cook’s Illustrated Magazine in a survey of top brands. These knives have excellent edge retention and combine the sharpness of carbon steel with rust resistance. The comfortable Duracon resin handles are anti-bacterial and these knives have a light and balanced feel.
