A new dimension made possible by our equally new premium steel. ZWILLING developed this steel and used it for the first time in the new TAKUMI knife series. 100 layers in Damascus design enclose the FC 63 core and ensure the superior hardness and edge retention of all knives in the series. Japanese and ZWILLING knives become TAKUMI - a combination with a tradition and a new chapter in the success story.

The TAKUMI premium chef's knife takes you to a new dimension in terms of hardness and thread retention. 100 layers of our newly developed premium steel and an FC 63 core have been machined into the 20 cm blade which - with its 63 HRC rating - achieves a degree of hardness rarely seen in kitchen knives, but without compromising flexibility.

In other words, his internal values ​​are perfect. But in a superior quality Japanese knife, the design must not fall short of exceptional technical values ​​in any respect. The chef's knife from the ZWILLING TAKUMI series impresses here with its beautiful and individual damask pattern right from the tip. An emotion that continues up to the handle with its noble Micarta sheath.
