1. Kai Shun Santoku
This Shun Santoku is ideal for those who have not yet worked with large knives but want to cut professionally. With the Shun Santoku, you can slice ingredients into fine pieces by pushing or pulling the blade along its entire length.
The wide blade and excellent handling of the Shun Santoku are highly appreciated by professional chefs as well as ambitious home cooks. Santoku means "three virtues" in Japanese and is suitable for meat, fish, and vegetables, much like a European chef's knife. It features a 32-layer Damascus steel blade with an HRC of 62.

2. Kai Shun Premier Tim Mälzer
The Kai knife from the Tim Mälzer series is a real eye-catcher with its hammered surface. Extreme sharpness and a good grip characterize the Kai knife. The Kai knives from the Shun Premier Tim Mälzer series are made from 32 layers of corrosion-resistant Damascus steel and feature a handcrafted hammered surface, known in Japan as Tsuchime, combining timeless aesthetics with unique sharpness. The blades of the Kai knives have a solid core made of VG-10 steel with a hardness of 61±1 HRC. Similar to the limited anniversary knife, this series emphasizes not only extreme hardness but also optimal grip. Thus, Kai knives are professional cutting tools that set new standards in the premium segment through their highest functionality in timeless design.

3. Kai Shun Classic
The Shun chef's knife series is highly regarded by culinary elites and ambitious home cooks alike. Shun professional chef's knives are made from a specially developed, rust-resistant Damascus steel with 32 layers. The inner layer consists of V-Gold-10 steel. This steel is extremely corrosion-resistant, very hard (61±1 HRC, 1.0% carbon, 1.5% cobalt), and, with proper care, keeps the blade sharp for a long time. The convex grind of the blade, along with the manual honing of each Shun knife, creates an unparalleled sharpness that allows the knife to glide through even the toughest ingredients with ease. This sharpness, combined with the balanced weight of the knives, enables fatigue-free work. The Santoku is suitable for meat, fish, and vegetables. The special shape of the Santoku knife ensures good handling and fatigue-free use.
