The Kai Shun Premier knives in the Tim Mälzer series combine KAI’s renowned and distinctive Damascus-layered metal construction with a hand-hammered surface design on the knife. This hand-hammered embellishment is known as Tshuchime in Japan and combines the exquisite aesthetic qualities of this knife with its exceptional sharpness.

The **Kai Shun Premium Tim Mälzer utility knife 15 cm** is one of the many kitchen knives from the Tim Mälzer collection from Kai. The knife has a slim, long blade and can be used for a wide range of cutting tasks. The blade is curved and ends up in a pointed tip. This allows you to rock the knife to chop food. The point is used for the precise cutting tasks. For every task in the kitchen a chef's knife is a little too big, you can use this knife. Whether it's cutting cheese, sausage or finely chopping herbs.

The Kai Tim Mälzer knives are enhanced with KAI's famous damask layered metal structure, combined with a very strong core of VG10 steel. The blade has been hammered by hand. This technique is called Tshuchime. This not only ensures high sharpness and a beautiful appearance, but it also ensures that the product that you are cutting sticks to the blade far less. 

The core of the blade is on the outside enhanced with 32 layers of stainless damask steel. The hardness of these blades is 61 ±1 HRC, which is exceptionally hard. As such this knife retains its sharpness for a very long time. The handle is made from brown walnut and feels great in hand for both left- and right-handed users. A beautiful detail is the Tim Mälzer logo on the end of the handle. All in all, a beautiful, functional knife to be loved.

## Kai Shun knife: how does the maintenance and cleaning work?

To make sure the Kai Tim Mälzer knives stay sharp for a long time and to enjoy them for as long as possible, there are a number of things to keep in mind. If you want to learn more we recommend reading our article about maintaining a Japanese kitchen knife.

## Kai Shun Tim Mälzer: a stunning combination of Japanese craftsmanship and European ergonomics.

"A good knife not only illuminates the work, but also partly determines the result". This phrase by Tim Mälzer formed the basis for the development of the Kai Tim Mälzer premier collection. Each knife in this collection was designed as a professional cutting tool. The particularly symmetrical shape of the handle ensures perfect cutting properties for both left- and right-handed use.

Prachtig en zeer scherp keukenmes. Universeel dus allround. Tevens een blikvanger. Iets aan de prijzige kant maar dan heb je ook iets wat je niet overal in een keuken ziet. Netjes geleverd en altijd zeer snel bezorgd. Service perfect. 

Amazing quality,very happy with this purchase...

Het mes is scherp en houdt de scherpte langer dan mijn (ook prima) 20 jaar oude Zwilling Prof. S set.
Ik vind deze Shun messen zeer fraai afgewerkt.
De messen zijn lichter in gewicht dan mijn Zwilling set en liggen mij wat beter in de hand.
Deze messen zijn gekocht als een blikvanger en bruikbaar sieraad aan mijn keukenmuur. Daarom had ik het geld er voor over.

General information

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

Measured from the tip of the blade to the back of the handle

Total length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

value_total_sharpening_angle

This is the total sharpening angle, so the sharpening angles of both sides of the blade combined. For a knife with a one-sided grind this equals a single sharpening angle.
