KAI presents the new Shun Classic Red DM-0717RD as a highlight. The exclusive Wide Santoku combines the proven qualities of the Shun Classic series with a new and elegant red grain pakkawood handle in a limited edition. The knife is limited to only 3,000 pieces worldwide. The serial number engraved on the bolster makes each knife unique and desirable as a collector's item.

The extremely sharp blade is made of an extremely hard VG-MAX steel core with a hardness of 61 (±1) HRC and is coated with 32 layers of Damascus steel. This combination ensures an extremely stable, hard, and yet flexible blade, ideal for a clean and precise cut. The blade is ground on both sides and is particularly lightweight, making it easier to use in the kitchen.

As with the regular knives of the Shun Classic series, the special red grain handle of the Shun Classic Red is made of pakkawood. The treatment with selected resins makes it extremely soft, elastic, durable, and moisture-resistant. Thanks to the traditional Japanese "chestnut" shape of the handle, the Wide Santoku fits comfortably in the hand during cutting and offers a firm grip.

The core of Kaname blades is made of an extremely durable VGXeos steel with a hardness of 60-62 (±1) HRC, rolled in two layers of stainless steel. The special manufacturing method ensures an incredibly thin cutting edge that reduces friction during use. This results in excellent and durable sharpness, promoting filigree, smooth and precise cuts.

To best design the handle, we combined the experiences of professionals and consumers. The result is a black-grained pakkawood handle that creates a seamless transition from the handle to the tang. The octagonal, ergonomic shape of the handle provides good control while cutting, while the knife rests securely and comfortably in the hand.

Renkei (連携) is a Japanese term that means collaboration, coordination, or connection. It is used to express the idea of working together, in close cooperation, to achieve a common goal or to create synergies between different people or organizations.

This project, born from the collaboration between Coltelleria Collini in Busto Arsizio and Coltelleria Due Cigni in Maniago, is an excellent example of synergy between two Italian companies specializing in the world of cutlery.

The Japanese VG10 steel used in this project, laminated to 67 layers and produced by Takefu Steel, is renowned for its extraordinary properties of strength, durability, and the ability to maintain prolonged sharpness over time. These characteristics make the steel ideal for the production of high-quality knives.

The 67-layer lamination technique gives the steel superior strength and flexibility compared to traditional steels. Additionally, the use of this Japanese steel gives the knives a distinctive and elegant design, with a particular wave pattern on the surface of the blade that forms during the manufacturing process.

The collaboration between Coltelleria Collini and Coltelleria Due Cigni highlights how the combination of skills and traditions of two Italian entities can lead to the creation of high-quality products, capable of competing with the best kitchen knives on the international market.

Thanks to the use of precious materials and attention to detail, these knives combine the excellence of Made in Italy with the high quality of the Japanese tradition in the cutlery sector.

- Please make sure to put the knives in a dishwasher from hitting other objects as this may damage the blades.

- The knives guaranteed for dishwashers that are not immediately washed in the machine should be rinsed under the tap water to remove the remains of the highly corrosive foods (fats, vinegar, fruit juices).

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.
