Made in Japan, these exceptionally durable knives are made with an SG2 supersteel core and are handfinished using a traditional three step process. The cryogenic icehardened, 11° angle blade offers scalpellike sharpness and will stay sharper, longer. Featuring an exquisite 101layer, deepetched chevron Damascus pattern, these revolutionary knives are true works of art. Boasting a smaller blade profile, these knives are perfect for smaller hands. The lighter weight provides increased nimbleness, ergonomics, and comfort while maintaining strength and balance. The white, linen micarta handle resists wear, even after prolonged use. And the signature decorative center pin is handcrafted by Bob Kramer. Contemporary and elegant, ZWILLING Bob Kramer knives are an indispensable addition to any kitchen.
