*by D***I on July 10, 2021*

Mi hobby es la cocina y me gusta tener los mejores implementos.Estos cuchillos Yoshihiro son los mejores que he tenido, tienen un mayor filo y la sensación de corte es única, muy superior a los de acero inoxidable.Tienen un buen balance en la mano y son muy bellos.Su filo los mantengo con un afilador alemán de diamante, la combinación perfecta.
