Kai Japan - Shun DM-0711 - Steak Knife 125mm - table knife
Shun Classic is one of the flagship lines of the Kai Group (which currently also includes the Kershaw and Zero Tolerance brands), a famous Japanese manufacturer of knives and razors since the early 1900s. This is a series of knives and kitchen accessories suitable for professionals and enthusiasts.
The blades are made of rolled steel consisting of an inner layer of VG-10 stainless steel and two outer cheeks of 32-layer damask. The result is excellent cutting capacity combined with excellent edge retention and good flexibility, which is also guaranteed by the differentiated tempering.
Today, these knives represent the pinnacle of Japanese culinary technology. The quality does not stop with the steel used, however, but continues with the care of the workmanship (sharpening in particular) and the materials used, such as the splendid Pakkawood used for the handles.

Handle: Black Pakkawood

Kai Japan - Shun Higonokami Personal Steak - DM5900 - Pocket steak knife
This beautiful folding knife is an extremely sought-after accessory, whether used as a gentleman's knife or as a personal steak knife.
The Higonokami style of knives was the very first produced in Japan, in fact it could already be found in 1896, during the Meiji period. One of the main features of the traditional Higo Nokami design is the protruding opening pin when the blade is closed, which allows the blade to be opened smoothly even with one hand.
Shun's Higo Nokami not only includes the traditional opening pin, but also makes improvements to the original design by also going to incorporate a Liner Lock type blade locking system to make the user experience more secure. A modern, thin and sharp VG10 stainless steel was also chosen, making the Higo Nokami perfect for use as a personal steak knife. The Pakkawood handle is enhanced by a central inlaid mosaic pin.
