Utility Damascus Knife 15 cm. Kanetsugu's Zuiun series is a special model made to celebrate the company's centenary. Seki Kanetsugu Zuiun knives have blades with a wavy "hamon" pattern similar to Japanese swords. In his current production, Seki Kanetsugu Cutlery has made modern blades that realize the characteristics of Japanese swords: unbreakable, inflexible and very sharp. The company also infused the Zuiun with the spirit of such swords. The blade is made of 62-layer Damascus steel which uses SPG2 powdered stainless steel for the core material. Finely sharpened by craftsmen, the surface of the blade features a cloud-shaped pattern. The V-shaped "hamaguri-ba" blade reflects a characteristic of Japanese swords. Blade material: 62 layers of SPG2 Damascus steel with R2 powdered center steel Handle material: Octagonal Pakka wood Chamfer: V-cut on both sides Rockwell hardness: 63 +/- 1 Blade length cm. 15
FAQs
What is the ideal length for a chef's knife?
The most common length for a chef's knife is 20 cm (8 inches), which is perfect for most kitchen tasks. However, the ideal choice depends on several factors: Hand size: Smaller hands handle 16–18 cm blades more comfortably, while larger hands may prefer a 21–25 cm blade. Personal habits: Those who favor broad movements and long cuts might lean toward longer knives; those who prioritize precision or work in tight spaces might prefer a shorter blade. Experience level: Beginners tend to choose shorter, more manageable blades, while professionals often prefer 21 or 24 cm knives for greater efficiency. In short, there is no “perfect” size for everyone — the right length should be chosen based on comfort, control, and intended use.

Can I put knives in the dishwasher?

It’s highly discouraged. High heat and aggressive detergents can damage both blade and handle. Knives can also knock against other items, dulling the edge.

What does "blade hardness" mean?

Hardness refers to how resistant the steel is, measured on the Rockwell scale (HRC). The harder the steel, the better it retains its edge—but it’s also more brittle and prone to chipping.
