In collaboration with Tim Mälzer, KAI has developed a special Junior chef's knife, designed to aid children aged 6 and older to handle knives safely when cooking collaboratively. Children imitate cutting intuitively with a kind of sawing movement. On this basis, the stainless steel blade of the Junior chef's knife has been equipped with a finely serrated edge, designed to minimize the amount of effort and risk of slipping during usage.
In addition to this, the blade has a rounded, blunt tip to further reduce risk of injury. Due to the non-slip and ergonomic plastic handle, the Junior chef's knife is safe in smaller hands. The Junior chef's knife comes with a flexible finger protector and a knife bag for maximum protection. The Tim Mälzer Junior chef's knife was awarded the Red Dot Design Award in 2012.

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. The integrated tang boosts stability and balance.
