KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer 2-piece steak knife set - Damascus steel - Pakkawood handle
KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Series 2-Piece Steak Knife Set / Handle made of dark Pakkawood
A juicy steak is best enjoyed with a partner, and for that you'll need two steak knives. Luckily, the KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Steak Knife is also available as a 2-piece set.
The 15 cm blade of the KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Steak Knife is made of a VG-Max steel core, wrapped in 32 layers of Damascus steel. This combination gives the steak knife incredible sharpness and long-lasting edge retention. In numerical terms, the blade has an impressive hardness of +/- 61 HRC. An elaborate hammer-finished surface, known in Japan as Tsuchime, is worked into the blade up to the middle. This creates a 3-part texture on the blade, making the steak knife a true eye-catcher.
A blade that has been so elaborately crafted demands an equally worthy handle. The medium-brown, grained Pakkawood handle with a length of 10.5 cm is just as impressive as the blade. The symmetrical and ergonomic handle shape fits the hand perfectly, whether you're cutting with your left or right hand. Thanks to the applied lamination, the wooden handle is very resistant to liquids. However, the knife should not be exposed to long water baths or even a dishwasher. A steel plate with an engraving of Tim Mälzer's Kitchen Bulls forms the magnificent finish of the knife.
The packaging is just as successful as the knife: Each KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer knife is securely nestled in a wooden box.
The KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer series is undoubtedly one of the top series from the Japanese knife forge. Whether you like Tim Mälzer or not, the knives are really cool - to put it in Tim Mälzer slang.
