The finished blades are then sandblasted and polished to bring out their unique lines. The blade is made of VG-10 cemented carbide steel as the core material, and 33 layers of stainless steel are layered on both sides of the blade to form a forged product. Kasumi Damascus knives, carefully finished one by one by a skilled craftsman, have a long-lasting sharpness and can be used for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chef's knife is the ultimate kitchen knife, ideal for a range of tasks including chopping and dicing vegetables, slicing meats, and mincing herbs or garlic.

Skilled Japanese craftsmen forge Kasumi knives by joining a piece of soft iron to a piece of carbon steel. After forging, hammering, and shaping, the carbon steel becomes the blade's edge, while the softer iron part becomes the blade's body and spine. The end result is an extremely sharp Kasumi knife that is both easy to sharpen and retains its edge longer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kasumi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48419452158178,"sku":"7188024","price":439.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2028\/9645\/files\/s3_L-1.jpg?v=1789413740","url":"https:\/\/www.laguildeculinaire.com\/en\/products\/couteau-de-chef-japonais-kasumi-damas-24cm","provider":"La Guilde Culinaire","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
