Precision tool for professional results
The 20 cm blade is crafted from premium VG10 steel from Takefu Special Steel Co. in Echizen, Japan. The knife undergoes an advanced production process, where it is tempered at over 1000°C and cooled to below -180°C. This results in an exceptional hardness of 60-61 HRC, ensuring long-lasting sharpness. The Damascus-patterned surface, with 33 layers on each side of the core, not only enhances the knife's aesthetic appeal but also contributes to its resilience and minimal friction during use.
Ergonomic design for extended cooking sessions
The handle, made from FSC-certified pakkawood, provides a secure grip even during prolonged use. The material is water-resistant and resistant to heat and deformation, making the knife comfortable to work with, even when preparing larger meals. The thoughtful balance between the blade and handle (total weight 595 grams) gives you full control and reduces strain on your wrists and fingers, allowing you to focus on cooking.
