Before purchasing a MASAMOTO KS Professional Knife, customers are advised to choose a knife that best suits their intended purpose. Different Japanese knives are recommended for specific ingredients, and proper maintenance is crucial for carbon steel knives to prevent rusting. Careful handling is necessary due to the thin blade edge's delicate nature.

The MASAMOTO KS Professional Knife Series includes the Gyuto, Petty, Deba, Yanagiba, Kiritsuke Yanagi, Usuba, and Kama Usuba knives, each designed for specific culinary tasks. Customer reviews and pricing information are provided for transparency, along with details on blade length, material, hardness, bevel, handle, ferrule, and country of origin.

For clarification, MASAMOTO knives are exclusively produced by MASAMOTO SOHONTEN in Azumabashi, Tokyo, and are not to be confused with Tsukiji Masamoto products. The knives are not rustproof and require proper maintenance. The HONBAZUKE sharpening process ensures that MASAMOTO knives are ready to use out of the box, embodying the authenticity and quality of Japanese craftsmanship.
