The Handle, made of durable G10 Damascus composite with a decorative pattern, has been designed with full user comfort in mind - it provides a firm, stable grip even in wet working conditions. The whole is complemented by a G10 kakumaki that stabilizes the construction and enhances the aesthetics of the knife. Model 17469 is a premium tool, created for professional chefs and cooking enthusiasts who appreciate Japanese finesse and cutting perfection.
5Cr15MoV is a chrome martensitic steel, often used in mass production of knives and tools. Its nominal chemical composition includes about 0.50-0.60% carbon (C) and 14.5-15.0% chromium (Cr), with additions of molybdenum (Mo) and vanadium (V) in smaller amounts. 5Cr15MoV is valued for its ease of sharpening and relatively good strength. It is widely used in kitchen knives, survival knives, moderate hunting knives, and multi-tools. It is a steel that offers a good balance between corrosion resistance, hardness and ease of maintenance, making it a very versatile choice.
Blade- made of corrosion-resistant 5Cr15MoV stainless steel , which provides edge durability and ease of sharpening - especially important for everyday kitchen use. The Yanagiba profile with a long, single-sided ground edge allows the blade to conduct a smooth cut along its entire length, which is crucial when filleting and preparing raw fish dishes. The satin finish reduces food sticking to the blade during slicing and hides minor scratches created during use, maintaining an elegant appearance even after long use. The flat grind allows the blade to precisely guide through delicate structures, minimizing damage and ensuring a smooth cutting line.
Handle - is made of high-quality G10 Damascus composite , which combines resistance to moisture, temperature fluctuations and mechanical impact with a modern, attractive design. This material ensures durability and a secure grip even when working for long periods in a humid kitchen environment. The ergonomic profiling of the handle allows for precise knife guidance and natural hand positioning, eliminating fatigue during work. The smooth, slightly rounded surface of the Handle improves handling comfort and makes it easier to keep the knife clean. The design is reinforced by a kakumaki dewlap, also made of G10, ensuring a stable connection between the blade and the handle and proper balance of the entire tool. This solution is dedicated to users who appreciate precision, control and elegant form in one professional kitchen knife.
