Kai knife Shun
KAI stands for the highest quality when it comes to cutting tools worldwide. The company, founded in 1908, has managed to satisfy customers on all continents for decades with the combination of traditional Japanese blacksmithing, the best materials and innovative technology. KAI gained a foothold in Europe in the 1980s and has since become more and more popular in professional kitchens as well as with home cooks.
Handcrafted hammer finish surface
The Kai Shun is something very special. It combines tradition with modernity in a unique way. The twelve blade shapes are forged from 32-ply, rustproof Damascus steel, a material that has been very popular when it comes to cutting tools for over 2000 years. The absolute highlight in the processing of the blades of this edition is that the knives have a handcrafted hammered surface and are therefore unmistakably manufactured products, which alone gives them a touch of historicity. This timeless charm is complemented by the massive blade core made of VG MAX steel, which gives the cutting edge an extreme degree of hardness of 61 ± 1 HRC. This makes the blade extremely robust and a long-lasting partner when dividing clippings.
Innovative design
The outstanding design of the blades of the Shun segment is also continued in the handle. The KAI Shun knives have a nicely symmetrical handle made of laminated pakka wood. This handpiece enables the chef's knives to be balanced and gentle in the hand. Right-handed as well as left-handed people can easily divide the food precisely, so that these kitchen gadgets help every dish to perfection.
Diverse knife series
Various kitchen tools are included with KAI. Among other things, a set of 2 steak knives, a meat fork, a ham and a bread knife. There are also several chef's knives, all-purpose knives and a paring knife, as well as a paring knife, of this edition. The range includes two santoku and one nakiri from the Japanese area. Thus, the Kai Shun knife covers everything that is necessary in terms of cutting tools for a well-functioning kitchen.
