Damascus Series Features:

• Beautiful 64-layer Damascus-style steel reminds us of the centuries-old Japanese tradition of folding the steel for increased strength.
• 2.0-2.5mm thin blades for less wedging into cuts and for producing a sharper knife.
• Original Molybdenum steel has better edge-retention and is easier to sharpen than most other brands.
• Western-style shapes with a handle that is in-line with the spine of the blade and a pointed tip.
• The added bolster on these knives concentrates the weight of the knife in the center of your hand when using a chef’s grip. The added weight helps to drive the knife through hard/dense foods such as carrots apples and onions without having to use a thicker blade. The bolster also provides a smoother grip area for your thumb when using a chef’s grip to pinch the blade.
• Razor-sharp edge that made MAC knives famous over 40 years ago.
• Completely tapered from spine to edge creating a V-shaped blade that glides through cuts with ease.
• Perfectly balanced weight distribution creates a sense of comfort when holding the knife and keeps you in control of the blade.
• Slightly curved edge allows you to use almost any style of cutting whether it is a European rocking motion or a Japanese slicing motion.
• Over-sized Pakka wood handle has the look and feel of natural wood but lasts much longer.
• Comfortable balance light-weight sharp edge and thin blade all combine to create a precision tool that is easy to handle and control; reducing the risk of hurting yourself while working on the cutting board.
