KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Ham Knife 24 cm - Damascus Steel - Pakkawood Handle
KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Series Ham Knife 24 cm / Handle made of dark Pakkawood
Using any other knife than the KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Ham Knife to slice ham would be a real waste. A ham knife is a filleting and meat knife with a blade length of at least 21 cm. The narrow and thin blade is perfect for slicing all kinds of meat and fish into beautiful slices. And of course, ham as well.
The 24 cm long blade of the KAI Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Ham Knife is made of a VG-Max steel core, wrapped in 32 layers of Damascus steel. This combination gives the ham knife an enormous sharpness and long-lasting edge retention. In numbers, the blade has an impressive hardness of +/- 61 HRC. An elaborate hammering surface, known as Tsuchime in Japan, is worked into the blade up to the middle. This creates a 3-part texture on the blade, making the ham knife a true eye-catcher.
Such an elaborately crafted blade demands an equally worthy handle. And the medium-brown, grained Pakkawood handle with a length of 12 cm is just that. The symmetrical and ergonomic handle shape fits the hand perfectly, whether you are left or right-handed. 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 is the magnificent finishing touch 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.
