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 particularly comfortable handle.
The key is of course the functional ones, 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 stock, which is made of American walnut wood, is also pampered.
The knife here is a slicer (or pre-slicing knife) of 24 cm, and it is used e.g. as the name suggests for cutting a roast, but also more generally for cutting larger pieces of meat into slices or steaks. You can advantageously use this knife together with the Premier roasting fork, which you can see here .
Premier is a series of knives with a relatively thin blade that has good cutting properties and is relatively light.
