How to choose a carving knife for beginners?
For those who have no experience in carving and are just starting out, it is recommended to choose a knife with a small blade and no length.

This is because it is easy to dig fruits and vegetables with hard skin.
Weight is also an important point in choosing. For beginners, we recommend a lightweight carving knife that will not get tired even if you hold it for a long time. Please choose the best carving knife while paying attention to the above three points!
