why choose this knife?
15 years of collaboration
Tim Mälzer, known for his innovative approach to cooking, has worked closely with KAI craftsmen to develop knives that meet the needs of professional chefs and amateur cooks alike. The Shun Premier series, with its VG-Max steel blades and damascus pattern, embodies elegance and functionality, while focusing on ergonomics for comfortable, efficient use.
material
The core of the Shun Premier blade is made from extremely hard VG Max steel and is coated with 32 layers of damascus steel. This combination of different types of steel makes the blade both hard and soft. The blade, sharpened on both sides, is comfortable to use thanks to its low weight and guarantees a clean, precise cut. The surface is hand-hammered not only for aesthetic reasons, but also to ensure that the food does not stick to the blade, thanks to the small bubbles that form.
