KAI Shun Classic Carving/Slicing Knife 23cm – Damascus Steel Blade

Talking about KAI kitchen knives is talking about Japanese cutlery of superior quality. This is why since the foundation of the brand in 1908 KAI knives have been widely used by professional and home cooks from all around the world. Loved by professionals as well as by home cooks, Kai knives are the result of the old Samurai know-how combined with the latest technology of the cutlery industry.

KAI has several different knife ranges that are adapted to the different needs, preferences, and budgets of its customers. One of its most popular knife ranges is the Kai Shun Classic series. All Kai Shun Classic knives are characterised for their beautiful design and excellent cutting performance. These high-quality kitchen knives are all manufactured in Japan and have lifetime warranty.

For example, the KAI Shun Classic Carving Knife 24cm is the best tool that you can have in your kitchen to cut big pieces of meat, roasts and ham. Often known also as a slicing knife, the remarkable sharpness of this knife’s cutting edge enables the knife to slice meat with unbelievable ease and precision. 

The blade of this knife has a length of 24 centimeters and has a Damascus effect that gives the knife a super elegant look. The Damascus effect is created by 32 different layers of steel that provide the knife with a high level of rigidity. In addition, the blade has a VGMAX steel core which contributes to the elevated hardness (61 HRC Rockwell scale) of this knife.

Another important characteristic of the construction of the blades is the convex shape of the cutting edge. This type of cutting edge represents the traditional blade of most Japanese kitchen knives. After getting its shape defined, the blade was also sharpened by hand to ensure the best possible cutting performance.

Furthermore, also contributing to the beauty of this knife, the handle has a typical Japanese construction with D-shaped design that adapts perfectly to your hand. It is made of pakka, which is material formed from the combination of wood and resin. This material is known for being super durable and ultra hygienic and that is why is highly appreciated by professional chefs.

There is no space for debate : the beauty and great quality of this knife is unbeatable! Regardless of whether you are a professional or a hobby cook, this knife is a must-have in your kitchen! It is guaranteed to be worth every single cent of its price! You will be happy of your investment since the very first time you use it 🙂
