Kinzan 金山 7.7″ Damascus Steel Gyuto Japanese Chef Knife 牛刀
Introducing the Kinzan 金山 by Shimeru, a premium 7.7″ gyuto knife that celebrates the timeless beauty of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. Named after the "Golden Mountain," the Kinzan radiates warmth and refinement, offering exceptional cutting performance in a blade destined to become a treasured kitchen heirloom.
67-Layer Damascus Steel Brilliance The Kinzan's blade is meticulously forged from 67 layers of premium Damascus steel, encasing a VG10 core celebrated for its outstanding sharpness and edge retention. The intricate flowing pattern across the blade surface tells the story of expert forging, while the hammered tsuchime finish reduces friction and prevents food from clinging to the steel. Every cut is precise, effortless, and controlled.
Elegant Rosewood and Amber Handle The handle is a showcase of natural sophistication, crafted from rich, deep-grained rosewood that exudes classic elegance. A luminous amber resin spacer adds a touch of warmth and distinction, complemented by polished steel accents that frame the design beautifully. The octagonal profile provides a secure, comfortable grip, allowing for confident control and reduced hand fatigue during extended culinary sessions.
Agile Precision At 7.7″, the Kinzan offers a nimble yet capable blade length, perfectly suited for chefs who appreciate agility without sacrificing versatility. From delicate herb chiffonades to swift vegetable prep and precision protein work, the Kinzan responds to every movement with grace and accuracy.
