The Kai 8-inch Chef Knife is the cornerstone of the Kai series, blending refined craftsmanship with powerful cutting performance. Forged from 67 layers of steel, its blade features 33 folded layers surrounding a razor-sharp VG10 high-carbon core. This Damascus construction offers exceptional edge retention, strength, and durability suited for both professional and passionate home cooks.
With a gently curved edge and tapered tip, the Chef Knife is built for versatility. Whether you are chopping vegetables, slicing meat, or mincing herbs, it delivers smooth, precise cuts with confidence and control.
The blade is finished with a beautifully dark-washed Damascus pattern that gives the knife a distinct and bold appearance. Paired with a rich rosewood handle accented by a mosaic pin, the design balances elegance with resilience. The ergonomic shape fits naturally in the hand, providing a steady grip and reducing fatigue during extended prep.
