KAI Shun Classic White Office Knife 9 cm - 32-layer Damascus Steel - Pakkawood Handle

KAI Shun Classic White Office Knife DM-0700W with a 9 cm long blade made of 32-layer Damascus steel and a chestnut-shaped handle made of light Pakkawood. The office knife is used for all preparatory cutting tasks such as peeling and cleaning fruits and vegetables. Its use is therefore similar to that of a paring, vegetable, or utility knife.  

The core of the Shun Classic blade down to the edge is made of extremely hard VG MAX steel and has a hardness of 61 HRC. VG MAX steel is corrosion-resistant and stands for lasting sharpness. The core is surrounded by 32 layers of a Damascus steel composite. This combination makes the blade both hard and elastic, preventing it from breaking, assuming normal use. All Shun Classic blades are symmetrically ground on both sides.

The handle is made of light, ash-colored Pakkawood in a traditionally Japanese chestnut shape. The slight edge on the right side is perfectly adapted to the hand geometry, allowing for a relaxed yet secure grip. The knife can be guided precisely without signs of fatigue.

High-quality resins added to the Pakkawood make the handle particularly durable and moisture-resistant. The tang, which runs completely through the handle, provides stability and balance to the knife. The transition between the blade and handle is marked by a stainless steel bolster, as is the end cap at the handle's end.
