Chef's Knife FUKAKURYU KAI Birch Maple 240 mm

Ryusen Hamono Fukakuryu Kai Chef's Knife 240 mm – power and precision in perfect balance

The 240 mm chef's knife from the Fukakuryu Kai series has been developed for the larger tasks in the kitchen, where length, power and stability make a noticeable difference. The longer blade allows for smooth, uninterrupted cuts and is ideal for larger vegetables, breaking down meat and fish, and precision work at a professional pace. It is a knife for those who prefer maximum control and efficiency.

SG2 Damascus steel in an absolute class of its own

The blade features a core of SG2 powder steel, renowned for its exceptionally high hardness, fine grain structure and outstanding ability to hold an extremely sharp edge. Surrounding the core are multiple layers of Damascus steel that add strength, stability and a beautiful, vivid pattern. The combination ensures minimal resistance in the ingredient and clean, precise cuts even during demanding tasks.

240 mm blade for large ingredients and long cuts

The extended blade length makes this chef's knife particularly well suited to larger ingredients and tasks where continuous cuts are essential. The gently curved edge supports both rocking motions and straighter cuts, whilst the height of the blade provides excellent knuckle clearance and safety when working on the chopping board.

Elegant maple wood handle

The handle is crafted from maple wood and designed with a focus on ergonomics and balance. The wood's light, calm appearance underscores the knife's exclusive character, whilst the smooth surface provides a secure and comfortable grip. The interplay between the long blade and the well-balanced handle produces a knife that feels stable and controlled even during extended periods of use.
