The Imarku Pro Kitchen is an 8-inch knife with the character to bring efficiency to your kitchen, with the dexterity that a chef’s knife ought to have. It gives your hands a level of accuracy that’s rare to experience with single knifes out there, especially at a price point that really undercuts most chef knives cut from the same stainless-steel material.
Unlike most single-use knives in the same niche, the Imarku Pro offers a better level of versatility allowing you chop all sorts of foods, something you’ll appreciate if you’re in the market for a do-it-all cutter.
An easy use, clean knife
This Imarku Pro knife is almost maintenance free. The blade is manufactured from high-carbon stainless steel that adds up to the blade’s sturdiness and durability, making it a good choice for professional applications including cutting, dicing, slicing, chopping and even cutting meat off bones.
With the multi-purpose profile, Imarku designed the knife for easy cleaning by either swashing it in water or simply wiping it with a dampened cloth. The blade is rust resistant, you so won’t be concerned of rust spots on the knife after storing it overnight in a drawer.
A comfortable, ergonomic handle
On the Imarku Pro is a standard handle built to an ergonomic shape and size, something to keep your palm from aching after gripping the knife in the kitchen for extended time. In addition to the ergonomic design, the knife is made in a way that it gives a knuckle clearance that’s large enough to protect your fingers while using it.
It is an innovative design to ensure that you won’t be banging your fingers against the cutting board as you prepare you r foods. As if that’s not enough, the knife’s weight is balanced in a way that it features a bolstered handle. What this does, is that it weighs the knife down in a way that it doesn’t feel awkward to use. The bolder also gives your fingers some clearance from the blade’s edge for safety. Now you can prepare your foods without the fear of chopping off your fingers.
An ultra-sharp blade, durable materials
If there is one thing you’ll love with the Imarku Pro chef’s knife, it must be the incredibly sharp edge. The blade is cut from high-carbon steel making it easy to master and effortless to use. All you need is a bit of sharpening to restore a dulled-out edge, but it will retain the sharpness for days on end. Best practice is to store the blade from any hard surface that will make it blunt and wash it manually, as machine washing will bump the blade to objects.
From the feel of it, this knife appears like the kind you’ll use for a few years to come before you can call for a replacement. It is made of premium materials that are resistant to damage and wear, particularly the stainless-steel sheet that can survive multiple chops and corrosion caused by acidic foods. For the handle, it is made of hardwood material that will obviously last for many years and, being resin treated makes it impervious to water that would damage it.
