SHUN NEGARE BREAD 23 CM

SHUN NEGARE BREAD 23 CM

With this series, Kai has created a masterpiece of Japanese blacksmithing innovation. Its highly sophisticated design and the special properties of the materials used in its manufacture, along with a highly complex production process, place this Kai series at the top of the pyramid in terms of quality and customer satisfaction.

A contrast to the luxurious Japanese kitchen knife is the artistic "radial" design used in the decoration of the highly polished and shiny layers of Damascus steel.

The blades in this series are formed from two different steels, which are joined together to form a single piece of 72-layer Damascus steel. This complex fusion of two types of steel results in a blade with exceptional cutting performance, which has been awarded a Special Mention at the 2017 German Design Award.

The combination of flexible and robust VG 2 steel and an especially hard VG 10 steel results in a hardness of 61 (± 1) HRC. The double-edged blades have particularly long-lasting edge retention and excellent sharpness.

The ergonomic handle with soft, rounded lines fits perfectly in the hand. The forged tang in the handle gives the knife robust stability and provides optimal counterbalance to the blade. The riveted handle is made of mottled gray and black pakka wood, a water-resistant wood veneer.

The sophisticated design of this 9 CM Shun Nagare Office, the special properties of the materials used, and a technically complex production process make this knife series belong to the absolute luxury category.

On the highly polished blades, a lavishly decorated radial pattern of Damascus layers is visible. This effect, combined with the gray-black mottled handle, gives the knife a striking overall appearance.
