Description & specifications
Shun Kagerou is KAI's newest high-end series, awarded the Red Dot Award 2025. Kagerou — the Japanese word for the heat haze that shimmers above flames — is reflected in the blade's pattern: the upper half is mirror-polished, while 71 layers of Damascus steel ripple along the edge like a veil of heat.

Vask kniven i hånden med mildt opvaskemiddel og tør den straks af. Brug aldrig opvaskemaskine. Undgå at skære i hårde emner som ben, brusk og frosne fødevarer. Opbevar kniven i en knivblok, på en magnetliste eller i en skede for at beskytte klingen.
Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
