Designed by Michelin-starred chef Thomas Keller and crafted by award-winning cutlery maker Cangshan. Single large rivet features Thomas Keller's initials. This santoku's hollow-ground blade reduces surface resistance, aiding the user in making smooth, precise slices.
Forged from Swedish Damasteel RWL34 powdered steel, an extraordinarily fine-grained, high-alloy steel known for its excellent edge strength, hardness and corrosion-resistance. Full-tang blade construction. Bolster-free design supports firm pinch grip and allows easy honing/sharpening.
Ultra-precise 6-stage heat treatment creates a Rockwell hardness rating of 61 +/-2, allowing the blade to take a remarkably sharp edge. Hand polished and hand sharpened by expert bladesmiths. 16-degree Asian-style cutting edge.
Packaged in an attractive walnut storage box featuring Chef Keller's signature laser engraved onto the box for an elegant touch. Magnetic storage box boasts a unique hinge-less design.
