DM.0716-Kai Shun Damascus Japanese utility knife

Universal knife from the Kai Shun Damascus range

Traditional Japanese knife produced for centuries in Seki, Japan in the same look. 
Thanks to its 10 cm blade it will be perfect for cutting vegetables and fruits with a firm skin, versatile knife.

Forged from a core of VG 10 steel with a hardness of 61 HRC surrounded by 32 layers of damascus steel, the blade offers great strength, a perfect cutting performance and above all an incredibly long cutting life.
This cutting resistance - achieved by a new three-stage slow-speed sharpening process specific to Kai - considerably reduces the friction between the blade and the product and allows for better cutting of food
The slim handle, made of durable Pakka wood, is presented in the traditional Japanese chestnut shape. The high-quality resins that nourish the wood make the material particularly robust and resistant to moisture. The typical chestnut shape ensures a comfortable and firm grip when cutting, thanks to the slight ridge on the right side. The continuous silk guarantees stability and balance.
