Material
The blade combines different textures and grades of steel: the chamfered, polished bolster merges into the satined rounded blade back made of SUS420J2 steel and flows into a cutting edge made of especially hard VG 10 steel. The double-bevel blades combine a minimalistic aesthetic with high edge retention and corrosion resistance.
The fair, cross-grained pakkawood handle is seamlessly attached to the integrated tang, which is suitable for both left- and right-handed users due to its symmetrical shape. The handle is slim and light, giving it rather top-heavy and dynamic handling characteristics. The seamless transition from handle to polished bolster enables the comfortable and easy holding of the blade between thumb and forefinger.
Knives are put under a lot of strain in continuous daily use and even the best blade loses its sharpness over time.
KAI offers a wide range of sharpening and care products to give knives the optimum finish for a maximally sharp blade over many years: From ceramic-bonded whetstones for the traditional Japanese and professional way of sharpening to diamond and ceramic sharpeners to sophisticated blade care and more.
