Dark Tessellation Series 21 cm - 8.25 inch AUS-10 Damascus Kiritsuke Chef Knife Includes White Leather Sheath
The Dark Tessellation Series derives its name from the captivating honeycomb resin handle, resembling a tessellation of geometric shapes. This collection is aptly named the "Dark Tessellation Series" due to its deep blue background, reflecting the color of the resin in which the geometric shapes are embedded, creating a stunning visual impact.
It is a versatile, all-purpose knife in the kitchen. Similar to a traditional chef knife, it becomes your go-to choice for slicing, dicing, and chopping.
Key Features and Benefits
- Distinctive Design: The honeycomb resin handle showcases a captivating tessellation of geometric shapes.
- Superior Blade Construction: AUS-10 core 45 layer Damascus "super steel," clad on each side with 22 micro-thin layers of stainless steel and a AUS-10 core. The unique Damascus pattern is achieved through folded hammering and welding, ensuring no two knife blades are exactly the same.
- Optimal Performance: Rockwell 60±2 HRC, 2 mm thick at the bolster, and 0.7 mm thick at the tip. The knife arrives super sharp and maintains an edge longer than regular stainless steel knives due to the “super steel” core.
- Ergonomic Handle: The sturdy and durable resin handle is 20 mm thick, 25 mm high, and has a rounded rectangle shape with a comfortable bolster, ideal for a pinch grip.
- Unique Resin Color: The resin color is quite dark, almost black in some lighting conditions, transforming into a very dark blue in bright light, lightening towards the top or bottom of the handle.
- Full Tang Construction: The knife blade is connected to the end cap and runs through the knife handle, ensuring durability.
- Convenient End Cap: The plain chrome-look end cap adds a touch of elegance to the overall design.
