Material
VG MAX steel with a hardness of 61 (±1) HRC forms the entire blade's core right up to its edge. Sheathed in 32 layers of Damascus steel, the knife embodies a peerless anatomy paired with a resilient blade that is both hard and flexible at once due to its hybrid composition. The Shun Classic blades have a double-sided edge.
The slim handle made of durable pakkawood is fashioned in a traditional Japanese chestnut shape. High quality resins added to the wood make the material particularly resilient and resistant to moisture. Its typical chestnut shape ensures a comfortable and secure grip whilst cutting, thanks to a small rim on its right side (on the left side for left-hand models). The integrated tang boosts stability and balance.
Tim Mälzer and KAI have jointly developed the special Junior chef's knife to make it easier for young chefs from the age of 6 to use knives safely when cooking together. The fine serrated edge of the stainless steel blade in combination with a rounded, blunt blade tip and a flexible finger guard support the safe use of the knife.
The Junior chef's knife also comes with its own knife pouch for safe storage and transport.
