Real Damascus steel knives, not laser etched: Damascus steel knives are famous for their beautiful patterns. The SHAN ZU Damascus steel knife’s blade pattern is formed by repeated folding and forging several layers of carbon steel sheets, and the pattern becomes more visible after polishing. Fake Damascus steel knives are only laser etched (surface treated) to form a pattern, and this disappears completely after polishing.
Knife details: This chef's knife blade is 20 cm long, 2.2 mm thick, the handle is 13.5 cm long and the cutting angle is 15 degrees. The knife is 270 g in weight. - -
Japanese steel core, super sharp: The SHAN ZU chef's knife core adopts 10Cr15MoV Japan Damascus steel, high hardness (62HRC), corrosion protection and wear-resistance. In combination with advanced modern forging technology, you get an ultra-sharp kitchen knife.
Forged with 67 layers of steel plate, durable: The core of the SHAN ZU Damascus steel knife is made of Japanese 10Cr15MoV steel. In addition to the steel core, the blade is forged from 66 layers of carbon steel. A total 67-layer steel structure significantly improves corrosion resistance, rust resistance, toughness and other properties, making it a durable utility knife.
Comfortable and solid G10 handle: It uses a G10 frosted fibreglass handle, which is stronger than a wooden handle, moisture-resistant and never deforms, which ensures a long durability. The ergonomically designed handle provides a comfortable grip and reduces fatigue.
