Knife set of 2 Kai Shun Damascus japanese knives

This set from the Shun Classic KAI range is a must-have for all cooks!

Here's what's in the set:

- 1 universal knife 15cm

- 1 chef's knife 20cm

The blade of these knives is particularly sharp thanks to the quality of its steel. In fact, a damascene process is used: 32 layers of hard and soft steel are mixed together, giving the blade both hardness and flexibility.

The core is made of VGMAX steel, concentrated in carbon and cobalt. It ensures strength and particularly high corrosion resistance.

Initially, the cutting edge is worked to be bilateral. It is then sharpened by hand, to guarantee high-performance cutting. What's more, the blade achieves a strength of around 61HRC on the Rockwell scale, so you won't need to sharpen it as often.

The handles are made of pakka, a high-quality material composed of compressed wood and resin. This material is guaranteed to be antibacterial, resistant to temperature variations and water-resistant. Also, their particular "D" shape has been adapted to perfectly fit the anatomy of your hand, offering ergonomics and less fatigue during prolonged use.

Last but not least, we can note their refined, uncluttered aesthetic thanks to their unique, original veining. They are inspired by the katanas of the Japanese samurai, of which they are the worthy descendants.

These knives are delivered in a sober box that will suit all cooks: professionals and private individuals alike! Indeed, they are proof of a perfect alliance between craftsmanship, technique and design.
