Material
At their core, the blades are made of extremely hard VG XEOS steel, which is encased in 32 layers of Damascus steel. This unique manufacturing process creates an exceptionally thin cutting edge that reduces resistance during use. The result is excellent, long-lasting sharpness and the ability to make delicate, smooth and precise cuts. The elaborately crafted Damascus blade and highly polished cutting edge complete the elegant overall design of the knives, guaranteeing outstanding functionality and sharpness.
The grey-grained Pakkawood handle provides a smooth transition from the bolster. Its ergonomic, hexagonal shape offers good control during cutting and sits securely and comfortably in the hand. The handle design helps to prevent hand and joint fatigue, even during prolonged use.
This year, KAI and Tim Mälzer are celebrating the 15th anniversary of their successful collaboration. To mark this significant milestone, we are releasing an extraordinary limited edition designed to set the hearts of cooking enthusiasts racing. The name of this anniversary knife, THE LEGEND, says it all.
With its Tantō blade, the knife establishes a direct connection to the legendary samurai of Japan. The traditional blacksmithing artistry of the Samurai continues to inform KAI knives today, combining the most modern and innovative techniques with a centuries-old tradition.
