Product details

The Kai knife from the Tim Mälzer series is a real eye-catcher with its hammered surface. Extreme sharpness and a good grip characterize the Kai knife. The Kai knives from the Shun Premier Tim Mälzer series are made from 32 layers of corrosion-resistant Damascus steel and feature a handcrafted hammered surface, known in Japan as Tsuchime, combining timeless aesthetics with unique sharpness. The blades of the Kai knives have a solid core made of VG-10 steel with a hardness of 61±1 HRC. Similar to the limited anniversary knife, this series emphasizes not only extreme hardness but also optimal grip. Thus, Kai knives are professional cutting tools that set new standards in the premium segment through their highest functionality in timeless design.

Glückwunsch an das Kai Shun Premier aus der Serie von Tim Mälzer, denn dieses ist das beste Santokumesser im Vergleich. Diesen Platz verdient sich das Modell in erster Linie durch seine überragende Schnittqualität.
