Kai Shun Classic damascus Utility knife 15cm blade

ThisShun Classic KAI Universal knife is a must-have for every cook!

KAI Shun Classic knives are designed for lovers of high-quality Japanese knives! The blade of this knife is particularly sharp thanks to the quality of its steel. The 32-layer damascus process mixes hard and soft steel layers, giving the blade both hardness and flexibility.

Its core is also made of VGMAX steel: a specific composition concentrated in carbon and cobalt. It ensures long-lasting strength and resistance to corrosion. The blade has also been worked and shaped to obtain a convex cutting edge, and is then hand-sharpened for efficient cutting. What's more, it achieves a strength of around 61HRC on the Rockwell scale, so you'll need to sharpen it less often.

The pakka handle is a noble material made from hot-compressed wood and resin. It is guaranteed to be antibacterial, resistant to temperature variations and waterproof. Also, its particular "D" shape has been adapted to perfectly fit the shape of your hand, offering ergonomics and a comfortable grip. What's more, it represents the ideal blend of authenticity, with its dark wood, and practicality, with its resin enhancing its hygienic aspect.

Last but not least, we'd like to mention its sober, refined aesthetic, with its unique grain pattern. It is a worthy descendant of the samurai katanas from which it was inspired.

To care for it, we recommend hand-washing it, then drying it immediately and storing it in a dry place.

This knife is equally suited to professional cooks and private individuals! It's the perfect blend of craftsmanship, technology and design.
