Specification Brand : Klaus Meyer BulletPoint1 : VG10 Damascus Steel Blade with 67 Layers, Forged and Stainless Steel Bolster: The VG10 Damascus steel is celebrated for its formidable strength and lasting edge. Comprising 67 layers, it offers unparalleled hardness, sharpness, and endurance. With a carbon content of 0.95-1.05%, it surpasses the typical hardness of knives with 0.3% carbon content. The forging process enhances the blade's toughness, and the stainless steel bolster not only balances the knife but also enhances its visual appeal. BulletPoint2 : Ergonomic Full Tang Design with Curved Handle and Mosaic Brass Rivet: This knife features a full tang design, where the blade extends through the handle, ensuring enhanced stability and strength. The handle’s contoured shape provides a comfortable, secure grip, and the distinctive mosaic brass rivet adds a unique, elegant touch. BulletPoint3 : High-Density Blackwood Handle for Durability and Comfort: Crafted from robust high-density Blackwood from West Africa, the handle is designed to endure regular kitchen use. Its ergonomic shape reduces hand fatigue, and the material’s stain-resistant quality makes for easy cleaning and hygienic food preparation. BulletPoint4 : Superior Hardness and Precision with 58-60 Rockwell Hardness and 15-17 Degree Edge Angle: The knife's 58-60 Rockwell hardness ensures the perfect balance between retaining sharpness and resisting chipping. The ideal 15-17 degree edge angle provides efficient, precise cuts, while the hammered texture adds beauty and helps reduce food sticking. BulletPoint5 : Oil-Hardened for Enhanced Sharpness, Durability, and Corrosion Resistance: The oil-quenching heat treatment process, involving rapid cooling in oil, limits air exposure and surface oxidation. This results in a blade that is harder by 1-2HRC compared to air cooling, offering improved toughness and superior rust resistance. BulletPoint6 : Weighted Endcap for Optimal Balance: The knife includes a heavy, sturdy endcap, enhancing the overall look and contributing to its balance. This feature improves handling and control during use, increasing safety and precision in the kitchen. BulletPoint7 : Each knife comes in a solid wood sheath, protecting your knife from any scratch in long-term use.
