Description Kai Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Paring Kitchen Knife The Shun Premier Tim Mälzer series has been specially adapted to the needs and demands of professional chefs. This premium series combines the high-quality material properties of the well-known Shun Classic series with a completely new and impressive overall look. The blade is divided into three different textures: From the back of the blade to the middle of the blade, a hammered surface known as tsuchime has been incorporated The core of the Shun Premier blade is made of extremely hard VG Max steel and is lined with 32 layers of Damascus steel. This combination of different types of steel makes the edge hard and elastic at the same time. The blade, ground on both sides, is easy to use due to its low weight and guarantees a clean and precise cut. The hammered surface used, known as Tsuchime in Japan, is not only for aesthetic reasons, but also makes it easier to remove the cut material from the blade thanks to the small air cushions created. Thanks to its symmetrical shape, the handle is suitable for both left- and right-handed users. A continuous tang ensures stability and balance when cutting. As a special detail, Tim Mälzer's bull head, the trademark of the professional chef, was engraved on the end of the handle.
