Chef Damascus knife – with extra sharp blade

A 15° angle was applied to both sides of the cutting edge and the enormous sharpness was generated with 12 grinding processes. To ensure that this sharpness is maintained for a long time, the Damascus kitchen knife was subjected to a vacuum heat treatment. The kitchen knife is perfectly balanced with its weight of 218 g and lies perfectly in the hand thanks to the ergonomically shaped wooden handle. The total of 67 layers of damask steel of the blade were folded so often that a beautiful damask raindrop pattern was created on the blade blade – which in turn fits well with the handle: raindrops feed the mountain stream, on whose slopes the sycamore grows powerfully upwards.
