Created according to the principles of German gourmet chef Tim Mälzer, and forged by Japanese masters, the kitchen knives in the Shun Premier Tim Mälzer range are a concentrate of savoir-faire!
The blade of this Shun Premier Tim Mälzer santoku knife by Kai is made from 32-layer damascus stainless steel (a process that alternates layers of soft and hard steel to ensure the knife is razor-sharp and flexible). It has been hand-hammered during forging(a technique known as Tsuchime) to give it an exceptional edge. What's more, it has a hard VG 10 core, giving it a hardness index of 61+-1 HRC on the Rockwell scale.
What's more, all the knives in this series are tested by Seki's master blacksmiths in Japan, so the knife in question is perfectly suited to its purpose.
The walnut handle has been crafted to be sturdy, ergonomic and lightweight, making every use a pleasure! What's more, it's suitable for both right- and left-handed users, which is a considerable advantage.
Finally, there's the remarkable style of this knife, which is both authentic and modern, with its wooden handle and impeccably finished blade. It will almost become a work of art in your kitchen equipment!
