Kessaku 12" Carving Knife - Senshi Series

The Senshi Series Japanese AUS-8 steel blades meet the standard of a tough, rust-resistant knife with a significantly long lasting razor-sharp edge. Carbon and Molybdenum explains its rigidity and high wear resistance, Chromium and Nickel increases mechanical strength and edge retention, and Manganese helps increase hardness, reduce structural wear, and makes for easy sharpening. Put that all together, add our heat-treatment and nitrogen cooling process to ensure durability, sharpness, and abrasion resistance, and you have yourself a new culinary life companion. With a visually alluring pattern that changes with the light like a hologram, the G10 + carbon fiber handles are arguably the most qualitative of our series. Carbon fiber is one of the strongest materials used today for knife handles. It is much stiffer than steel, five times stronger, and impressively lightweight to minimize fatigue. By infusing the carbon fiber with military-grade G10 thermoset, we've created a handle not only incredibly robust, but with the resilience to thrive in the rigorous environments of the busiest kitchens.
