This Tamahagane damask Universal knife is part of the Kyoto range.
The Tamahagane brand is named after the traditional steel used to make Japanese swords. It's easy to deduce that these knives have a sharp blade comparable to Japanese swords!
The excellent cutting quality of this knife is achieved by the type of steel used in the design of the blade.
The blade contains 3-layer VG5 steel at its core. For those in the know, this steel is similar to VG10, except that it contains less cobalt. However, VG5 is more resistant to any traces of corrosion, a significant plus for professionals. The quality of the cutting edge is similar to that of VG10, in other words, it's excellent! Every cook dreams of making cuts without forcing himself, and this Universal knife won't require the slightest effort, thanks to its extremely hard and solid steel.
This VG5 core is coated with softer 63-layerSUS410 steel . These outer layers form the damascus pattern typical of Japanese knives. This damascus gives the knives a refined, pleasing design.
These characteristics give the blade an HRC hardness of 59 on the Rockwell scale, an extreme hardness that's a guarantee of high quality! Unlike conventional knives, you won't need to sharpen your knives every day, and their durability is increased tenfold.
The handle is made of micarta, a composite material combining paper and resin. Micarta is very strong: it resists water and temperature variations. It's also hygienic because it's antibacterial, an asset in the catering industry. Its dark color adds a touch of originality in perfect contrast with the blade, for a resolutely Japanese final look.
This knife has been designed for professionals and amateurs looking for exceptional cutting quality and a fine, precise edge. Its powerful blade makes it much less tiring to use over time. Fans of Japanese knives will also be seduced by the finesse of the damascus.
Finally, this knife comes in an attractive black presentation box, ideal as a gift for a loved one (or for yourself)!
