This chef's knife has been handcrafted by Tsunehisa Cutlery in Japan, a small team of experts who have been making handcrafted knives for many years. It's a damascus knife with a blade featuring a rigid core surrounded by several softer layers. The core of the blade is made of 440C steel (enriched with 1% carbon), robust and durable, with a hardness of 59HRC Rockwell: this handcrafted Japanese knife boasts excellent edge retention! In addition to providing a high-performance cutting edge, damascus adds a distinctive touch to your Japanese chef's knife. This handcrafted knife has also been finely hammered for an elegant finish. The handle is made of smoked oak, a strong, moisture-resistant wood. The stain is slightly darkened to bring out the wood's natural grain, for an authentic hammered knife! The handle is octagonal to suit both right- and left-handed users, while offering an ergonomic grip. Get your hands on an exceptional Japanese knife at KnifeLeader.eu!
