Minotake Bamboo Knife - Natural

I am a Minotake Bamboo Knife. I have a great bod. Curvy and trim in all the right places!

Curator's Notes 

This Knife is great for cutting cake or to use with a cheeseboard. Since 1898, Kohchosai has been specializing in making a variety of bamboo craft products. The Minotake line, designed by the world-renowned Makoto Koizumi, utilizes the natural properties and curvature of bamboo to create a series of cutlery items and kitchen tools. Each ergonomic bamboo piece is naturally lightweight, uniquely curved and features purposeful angles and arches.
