Exceptional cutting performance and durability
The 67 layers of Damascus steel not only provide a visually striking appearance but also give the knife an outstanding balance between strength and flexibility. The core made of Japanese VG10 steel has undergone an advanced hardening process at temperatures exceeding 1000°C, followed by cooling to -180°C. This process results in the high hardness of 60-61 HRC, allowing the knife to maintain its sharpness longer and be resharpened to its original sharpness time and time again.
Comfort and control in your hand
The pakkawood handle offers a secure grip and high comfort, even during prolonged use. The material is both water-resistant and heat-resistant, ensuring that the knife remains stable in your hand under all conditions. The thoughtful weight distribution of 593 grams provides the knife with good balance, reducing wrist fatigue and enhancing your control. To maintain the quality of the handle, it is recommended to oil it approximately once a month.
