KAI Shun Damascus Steel Knives<br />
High-quality Japanese knives are harder than<br />
similar European ones and can therefore be<br />
ground to a more acute angle. For this reason,<br />
the Japanese knives are also thinner. Because<br />
they are thinner and ground to a smaller angle,<br />
they glide easily through produce. Damascus<br />
steel is forged in several layers laid over one<br />
another. The various layers are can be seen in<br />
the finished blade as a type of grain. This production<br />
method is not for decorative purposes.<br />
The outer, softer layers are forged around a<br />
particularly hard centre and the finished blade<br />
is therefore flexible and suitable for all purposes.<br />
These kitchen knives from the Shun range<br />
by the leading Japanese cutler KAI are made<br />
from Damascus steel with 32 layers. The inner<br />
layer is made of V-Gold-10 steel. This steel is<br />
extremely resistant to corrosion, very hard (61±<br />
1 HRC, 1.0% carbon, 1.5% cobalt) and makes<br />
the blade uniquely sharp and retains the sharpness<br />
of the blade. Every knife is hand-ground.<br />
The techniques used come from the Japanese<br />
Samurai art of sword making. The handles are<br />
made from laminated Pakka wood with a light<br />
cross section for a safe grip. The blade is anchored<br />
within the handle along its whole<br />
length, which allows for a high level of stability<br />
and control when cutting.<br />
