ZWILLING Kanren 8-inch, Chef's knife

Description

Experience the beautiful union of German engineering and Japanese craftsmanship with the ZWILLING Kanren 8-inch Chef's Knife. "Kanren" means "connection" in Japanese, and this workhorse knife embodies that philosophy perfectly. The FC61 fine carbide steel core is embedded in 48 layers of stainless steel, creating a stunning Damascus pattern that protects the blade from corrosion and chipping. The cutting edge is Honbazuke-honed by Japanese artisans in Seki, Japan through a traditional three-stage grinding, sharpening, and polishing process that results in razor-like sharpness. The German-engineered curved bolster promotes the professional pinch grip, allows cutting the full length of the blade, and delivers ergonomic, fatigue-free cutting. The beautiful black linen micarta handle completes this exceptional knife.
