Blade made of 67 layers of steel, in which the multilayer structure of the material combines durability with an aesthetic wave pattern, characteristic of this forging method. An acid bath finish was used, which made the characteristic damascus patterns highly visible. The full flat grind evenly distributes the force during cutting, reducing drag and increasing blade precision. The Blade of the Tokisu Petty 17456 knife provides the ideal combination of precision and durability required for heavy kitchen use.
Stabilized wood is wood that has undergone a special impregnation process to fill its pores and cells with synthetic resins, usually acrylic or epoxy. The process involves placing the wood in a vacuum chamber, where air is removed from its structure, and then the resin is injected under pressure. Once saturated, the wood is thermally cured, which causes the resin to polymerize and permanently bind to the wood fibers.
Handle - made of high-quality stabilized wood and epoxy resin , which guarantees resistance to moisture, dirt and deformation even in intensive kitchen use. The process of stabilizing the wood under pressure preserves the natural structure and grain of the material, so that each piece has a unique visual character. The ergonomic shape of the handle has been adapted to the natural position of the hand, reducing fatigue during prolonged slicing and providing full control of the blade. A polished bolster seamlessly connects the Blade to the handle, reinforcing the design and improving the balance of the knife, which translates into comfort and precision in the kitchen. The smooth surface of the Handle is pleasant to the touch and easy to clean. The overall design combines premium aesthetics with excellent utility functionality.
