Within the premium brand Seki Magoroku, KAI presents the new knife series KANAME (要). The series is technically a 3-layer steel knife and belongs in this category, just like the entire damask knife range of the Japanese cutlery manufacturer, to the high-quality premium class. The knives stand out visually with their significant overarching of the blade and handle, inspired by the aesthetics of the classic samurai sword shape.
The blade shape of all knives belonging to the series is called Kiritsuke and is available with blade lengths of 12.0 cm, 15.0 cm and 19.5 cm. The brand Seki Magoroku combines innovative technology and traditional craftsmanship with the highest quality and exceptional design. In the Kaname knife series, for example, these characteristics are presented in the effcient strength transmission of the blade, as well as the functional and appealing look of a katana (Japanese sword).
