MAC TH-100 Chef Series 255mm Chef's Knife with Dimples – Made in Japan

MAC TH-100 Chef Series 255mm Chef's Knife with Dimples – Made in Japan

The MAC TH-100 is a 255mm Japanese-made chef's knife from MAC's Chef Series, designed for professional chefs and serious cooks who prefer the reach and cutting efficiency of a full-size 10-inch cook's knife.

Made in Japan, the TH-100 has a thin 2.0mm blade made from MAC's original molybdenum steel. Its French-style profile tapers quickly towards the pointed tip and the slightly curved cutting edge accommodates both rocking and slicing techniques. MAC describes the 10-inch TH-100 as a standard size for professional chefs and recommends it for slicing most fruits, vegetables and proteins on a cutting board.

The TH-100 is the dimpled version of MAC's BK-100 Chef's Knife. The shallow dimples along the blade are designed to reduce friction as the knife passes through ingredients. The thin blade and absence of a heavy bolster also keep the knife comparatively lightweight for its 255mm blade length.

Why choose the MAC TH-100?

• 255mm / 10-inch blade – a long chef's knife suited to substantial preparation work and larger ingredients.
• 2.0mm thin blade – designed to move through ingredients with less wedging.
• Dimpled blade – the TH-100 version of MAC's BK-100 chef's knife.
• Original MAC molybdenum steel – developed for edge retention while remaining comparatively easy to sharpen.
• French-style profile – fast taper towards the tip with a slightly curved cutting edge.
• Lightweight construction – approximately 220g despite its substantial blade length.
• Pakkawood handle – durable handle material with the appearance and feel of natural wood.
• Made in Japan – manufactured by MAC, the Japanese knife maker established in 1964.

The MAC TH-100 is particularly suited to cooks looking for a large Japanese chef's knife rather than the more common 180–210mm chef's knife. Its extra blade length provides greater reach when preparing larger vegetables, proteins and quantities of ingredients while retaining the thin, lightweight construction characteristic of MAC's Chef Series.

Care: Hand wash and dry promptly after use. Do not place in a dishwasher. This is a precision chef's knife and should not be used for cutting bones, frozen foods or other tasks better suited to a cleaver or heavy-duty chopper.
