Kai Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Minamo

In the Kai Shun Minamo series, television chef Tim Mälzer has effectively combined Japanese and European blade artistry. The typical Japanese Santoku knife and the classic European chef's knife have been created here as a new entity: the Tim Mälzer Minamo Santoku by Kai. This combination has also led to a blade shape that speaks its own clear language.

The blade of the Minamo Santoku by Kai is made from a specially developed stainless Damascus steel with 32 layers. The inner layer, the core, consists of V-Gold-10 steel. This steel is extremely corrosion-resistant, very hard with a hardness of 60 (±1) HRC, and keeps the blade sharp for a long time with proper care. It has been specifically designed by Tim Mälzer and features a fine Damascus pattern with a lively appearance, making each Kai Santoku Minamo feel unique.

The elegantly designed handle of the Santoku knife is made from black Pakkawood, oval and symmetrical, suitable for both left- and right-handed users. The blade and handle of the knife form a harmonious unit that excellently combines the Eastern character with European style and expresses it artistically.
