SHAN ZU Chef Knife

The Damascus pattern is authentic and created through the 67-layer forging process of the 10Cr15Mov steel, rather than being laser-etched onto the surface.

The G10 glass fiber handle is highly durable, moisture-resistant, and provides a secure, non-slip grip even when your hands are wet, making it ideal for professional or high-volume home use.

The 15-degree angle creates a finer, sharper edge compared to traditional Western knives, allowing for cleaner, more precise slices with less resistance.

While the 62 HRC hardness ensures the blade holds its edge for a long time, it does require a bit more patience and the use of quality sharpening stones or a professional honing system to maintain.

No, we strongly recommend hand washing and drying the knife immediately after use to protect the integrity of the steel and the handle, as harsh dishwasher detergents can cause corrosion and dull the edge.

At 260 grams, this knife has a substantial, professional feel. It is ergonomically balanced to reduce wrist fatigue, providing enough heft to handle tough ingredients while remaining agile enough for delicate tasks.
