The Shun Premier Tim Mälzer knives from KAI are a premium series of knives for both enthusiasts and professionals. The hallmarks are high quality and finish, good cutting properties and a very comfortable handle.

The focus is of course on the functional aspects, but it has nevertheless resulted in a visually impressive knife with many details such as the beaten tsuchime surface on the upper half of the blade, the clear transitions between the 65 layers of steel the knife is forged from. The handle, which is made of American walnut wood, has also been pampered.

The knife here is a 18 cm santoku. The Japanese word "san" in this context means three , and the word santoku can therefore be translated to three tasks , which are meat, vegetables and fish, respectively, which emphasizes that it is a universal knife. It is a knife that can replace the classic chef's knife, where the difference lies in the balance. The decisive factor in whether you should choose the santoku, the chef's knife or both is your cutting style, where the santoku is particularly good if you are the type who lifts the knife freely from the surface with each movement.

It is particularly suitable for cutting vegetables, but can of course also be used for meat, for example when cutting smaller pieces of meat for wok or stewed dishes.

Premier is a series of knives with a relatively thin blade that has good cutting properties and is relatively light.
