What is a ‘butcher knife’?
Slaughter knives, unlike other types of knives, are a very important knife in Jewish society and culture. A slaughter knife is a knife intended for slaughtering animals, poultry and other animals that are allowed to be eaten (kosher) in the Jewish community. Butcher knives must be precisely sharpened and there is a strict prohibition regarding a knife with defects. Because of this, before purchasing butcher knives, you must make sure that it is indeed a quality product intended for the purpose of butchering only.
Examining butcher knives in Jewish society
The butcher knife test is a comprehensive test that takes time and requires precision and care. A butcher knife that is not manufactured in a specific way will be unequivocally rejected by the examiner. It is recommended to linger and delve deeper into the field of butcher knives and purchase only a good butcher knife in order to use it comfortably, for a long time and to conduct yourself in a correct manner that will allow kosher butchering.
Emphasis on quality – Hattori butcher knives
There are many companies that offer butcher knives for sale but few of them actually provide a quality product. Here at “Hatori” you can find butcher knives made in Japan by KIYA and made of the highest quality Japanese steel (the samurai’s KATANA swords are also made of it, which are made with a slightly different method).
The high quality of the butcher knives we supply is reflected in the need to sharpen them less often (last for a greater number of slaughters), unlike other butcher knives, which need to be sharpened more often.
Butcher knives – price
A butcher knife is included in a group of products belonging to the category of butcher tools. There are many types of butcher knives and the differences between them are related to the steel from which they are made, the manufacturer, the size and length of the knife and its purpose. Slaughter knives come in 3 main types: knives suitable for slaughtering poultry, slaughtering sheep and slaughtering knives for cattle.
The price of a butcher knife varies from one supplier to another and depends on the quality of the product. Professional butcher knives will usually cost more than a simple knife intended for amateurs, but at the same time, its performance is many and its advantages are very significant when working professionally. It is not possible to answer unequivocally the question ‘how much does a butcher knife cost’ because the pricing of the product varies, but the price of a butcher knife for sale can reach hundreds and even thousands of shekels.
Butcher knives made in Japan – advantages
Butcher knives made of Japanese steel are considered quite high quality knives and are used by experts in the field all over the world. The Japanese company has proven itself many times when it comes to the production of quality and professional knives. Even in the field of butchery, which is considered a broad field in itself – they realized that butcher knives made of Japanese steel are many times better than knives of other makes and over competing companies.
A butcher knife made of Japanese steel is a powerful and special knife, and the chances of a blade made of Japanese steel being destroyed are slim. In addition, working with a Japanese butcher knife is more convenient than another butcher knife. These knives are recognized as premium knives and their use is possible for many years (with minimal maintenance). There are ancillary products sold together with the butcher knife (grinding stones, rust removers, Japanese paraffin oil, slings, cases, bags, etc.) where some are designed to keep the knife and others for maintenance purposes.
