The Kai Shun Kamagata Tim Malzer is an efficient, ergonomic knife, perfect for regular use. Its intuitive use makes it ideal for both professional cooks and passionate amateurs.
It enables you to make efficient gestures, for clean, precise cuts. The Kai Shun Kamagata range was created in collaboration with renowned German chef Tim Malzer, and this is not his first encounter with the Japanese manufacturer, as he has already participated in the development of several successful ranges.
This 15cmUniversal knife is a versatile model, appreciated for its maneuverability. It is mainly used for cutting medium-sized fruit and vegetables, but can also be used for mincing meat (without bone).
Its blade is made of satin-finish 1.4116 stainless steel, an alloy appreciated in the culinary world for its 14.8% chromium content. Chromium is an essential element in the fight against oxidation.
The alloy's hardness is around 57/58 HRC on the Rockwell scale. This is a very good ratio between edge life and ease of sharpening. You can maintain it with a Sharpening stone to bring out its full cutting potential.
The shape of the blade contributes to the knife's originality. You'll notice that the tip of the blade is curved. Tim Malzer himself came up with this concept, as it's a shape that allows for greater maneuverability (he observed it on knife models in Japan).
In fact, this is where the series takes its name from, Kamagata meaning "sickle-shaped" in Japanese. You can also make out the chef's personal signature, directly on the cutting surface, marking its authenticity!
The knife's handle is made of black POM, a strong, lightweight polymer appreciated for its durability. What's more, it's resistant to temperature variations and shocks. The slightly domed shape of the handle fits perfectly in your palm, whether you're right- or left-handed. Last but not least, you'll appreciate the logo engraved on the base of the handle: a stylized bull, representative of Tim Malzer at Kai.
The knife can be cleaned by hand, using mild soap and a non-abrasive sponge. You can then wipe it dry with a soft cloth, and store it away from moisture.
The Kai Shun Kamagata is a no-frills knife with a timeless, minimalist look. It's a great option for boosting your performance in the kitchen!
