The blade shape Kiritsuke is characterised by a significantly pointed shape. This is predestined for filleting fish as well as dicing, portioning and cutting vegetables, meat and fish. The specific notch at the back of the blade promotes safe and comfortable handling of the knife. The blade of the anniversary knife also features the unmistakable hammered look (tsuchime) of the Shun Premier Tim Mälzer series and bears the exclusive 13 The Lucky Edition logo and Tim Mälzer’s signature.
The anniversary knife is equipped with an ultra-matt, brown-grained handle made of pakka wood and thus differs from the shiny polished handles of the other knives in the TDM series. The pakka wood treated with selected resins is extremely supple, resilient, moisture-resistant and durable. The symmetrical shape makes the handle suitable for leftand right-handers and fits securely in the hand. A continuous tang also ensures an optimal balance between blade and handle.
At their core, Shun Premier Tim Mälzer blades are made of extremely hard VG Max steel with a hardness of 61 (±1) HRC, sheathed in 32 layers of Damascus steel. While the core steel provides the special sharpness and long-lasting edge retention, the different steel types achieve an extraordinary hardness and simultaneous elasticity of the cutters.
All blades in the series are divided into three different textures: In addition to the hammered surface from the back to the centre of the blade, they feature Shun’s characteristic fine matt Damascus pattern and a highly polished precision edge. The blade, which is ground on both sides, is particularly light, enabling comfortable handling for a clean and precise cut.
The Lucky Number TDM-1784 will be available from the 2nd half of 2023.
