KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Chef's Knife 15 cm - Damascus Steel - Pakkawood Handle
KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Series Chef's Knife 15 cm / Handle made of dark Pakkawood
The most important and best knife for every chef should be the chef's knife. With the chef's knife, 90% of all cutting tasks can be done. Over time, it becomes an extension of their arm, their best companion. Your chef's knife and you, they have to fit together. Maybe the small chef's knife from the KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer series is the perfect companion for you.
The 15 cm long blade of the small KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer chef's knife consists of a VG-Max steel core, wrapped in 32 layers of Damascus steel. This combination gives the chef's knife enormous sharpness and long-lasting edge retention. In numbers, 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 small chef's knife a real eye-catcher.
Such an elaborately crafted blade demands an equally worthy handle. And the medium-brown, grained Pakkawood handle with a length of 11 cm is no less than the blade. The symmetrical and ergonomic handle shape fits the hand perfectly, whether you cut 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 bull forms the magnificent finish of the knife.
The packaging is just as successful as the knife: Each KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer knife is delivered securely nestled in a wooden box.
The KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer series is without a doubt 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.
