MAC Original Series Kitchen Knife Set (CL-6 A-80 FK-70 CP SS-1)

Description: The FK-70 has some minor stains, and when I tested it by cutting paper for a video, it caught slightly.

Country/Region of Manufacture : Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan Others : Not dishwasher-safe ・About this item This is a set of MAC Original Series knives that has been stored in Japan for a long time without ever being used. The set includes the CL-6 (cleaver), A-80 (utility knife), FK-70 (fillet knife), CP (paring knife), and SS-1 (honing rod). The A-80 is likely the same as the Western version, the UK-80, and the CP is probably the same as the Western version, the PK-40. Please take a look at the last two photos. Both show the FK-70. The FK-70 has some minor stains, and when I tested it by cutting paper for a video, it caught slightly. The issue is likely caused by the area shown in the last photo. Please note that the paper shown in the photos is a warranty card, which is only valid in Japan. There may be slight differences between MAC knives designed for the Western market and those for the Japanese market. As a resident in Japan, I inquired about the Western specifications of MAC knives with the MAC headquarters. However, due to contractual agreements with MAC distributors in the West, they could not provide detailed information. Therefore, I cannot confirm any specific differences. Generally, MAC knives for the Japanese market have a double-edged blade with an asymmetrical edge, except for some models. This design choice caters to Japanese chefs who prefer the sharpness of single-edged knives like Deba and Yanagiba. The asymmetrical edge on a double-edged blade offers better sharpness compared to a symmetrical double-edged blade of the same size, while still maintaining the versatility of a double-edged design. Currently, these knives are listed for a total of $290 on the MAC USA website, while American sellers on eBay are offering them for a total of $254.15 at the lowest price. ・Dimensions for Each Knife CL-6Blade Length: 6.69"Weight: 7.0 oz A-80Blade Length: 7.69"Weight: 4.7 oz FK-70Blade Length: 6.75"Weight: 3.6 oz CPBlade Length: 4"Weight: 1.3 oz SS-1250 grit ・What is MAC? MAC was established in 1965 in Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, one of Japan's leading knife manufacturing areas. Although the headquarters are in Sakai, the factory is located in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, another of Japan's premier knife-making regions. The founder, a Japanese individual who worked as a chef in the U.S., used his experience to develop unique products, such as knives with rounded tips, which are rarely seen from other manufacturers. By the way, in Japan, when people hear "MAC," they usually only think of Apple computers or McDonald's, so the company's name is not widely recognized. However, it is highly regarded by professional chefs, cooking enthusiasts, and knife collectors. ■About me■I am a Japanese living in Tokyo and I love to cook. I sell only real items.
