Kai Japan - Shun Kohen Anniversary - TBS-0220 - Limited Edition Luxury Set - kitchen knives
With the two Kohen knives, the Japanese company once again demonstrates its great expertise in producing high-quality kitchen knives. The "Coreless" Damascus blade is made from VG2 and VG10 high-performance stainless steels that are forged and folded to produce 72 layers that alternate sequentially on the edge of the blade to ensure unmatched cutting and edge-holding performance.
A premium material such as pakkawood in red and black colorations was chosen for the handles. Also included in the set are two leather blade protector sheaths and an aluminum case for storing and transporting these two valuable knives safely.

Kai Japan - Shun Premier Tim Mälzer TDM-1784 - Small Kiritsuke 15cm - 13 The Lucky Edition - kitchen knives
Kai Europe offers another exclusive collaboration with master-chef Tim Mälzer: Small Kiritsuke 13 The Lucky Edition.
A special edition with an opaque brown handle and a 15 cm hammered blade. The edition is limited to only 5555 pieces and each one is numbered. As such, each knife is a unique collector's item.
As with the previous limited edition, the Kiritsuke was chosen, but in a smaller size. This is a type of Japanese knife that combines the design and characteristics of a usuba and a yanagiba. The usuba is used for cutting vegetables and the yanagiba for raw fish, for example when making sashimi. As such, the kiritsuke can be used for many different tasks in the kitchen: cutting vegetables, meat and fish. The tanto inverted profile makes the tip very flexible and perfect for precision tasks. The flat blade is perfect for other cutting tasks.
The superbly sharp blade is made of VG MAX steel with a hardness of 61 (± 1) HRC and surrounded by 32-layer Damascus steel. The Damascus steel makes each knife unique. The matt handle of this special edition is, like the regular knives in the Tim Mälzer Premier collection, made of walnut wood: it is moisture-resistant thanks to the resin treatment. The chestnut shape of the handle is comfortable in the hand and provides a firm grip when using the knife.
