Kaizen 8-Inch Chef's Knife

This precision chef's knife is a symbiosis of elegant design, the latest technology and centuries-old knife-making art.

How it's made: The revolutionary VG10 super steel core is made with a 64-layer flower Damascus pattern. Fine carbide distribution creates a razor-sharp and durable blade with a 61 Rockwell hardness. The double ice-hardened CRYODUR® blade offers remarkable sharpness and durability thanks to an innovative ice-hardening treatment. The blade is hand-honed using the historic Honbazuke method to an exceptionally sharp 9.5 to 12 degrees.

Additional features: The black Micarta wood-textured handle is wonderfully balanced and features an engraved steel end cap.

Sizing information: 14.75" x 3" x 1"; 8" blade; 0.75 lb.
