This Bread knife brings a beautiful hammered Damascus design to the kitchen without compromising its performance. Each XINZOU blade features a total of 67 steel layers for better durability.
The core of the blade is a 10Cr15CoMoV Steel. This is a high carbon steel which allows for a very sharp edge with the proper heat treating. This means the blade is hardened to a 58-62 HRC on the Rockwell scale. Any higher and the blade becomes too brittle, any lower and the edge can roll over too easily.
The 10Cr15CoMoV Steel core is the primary cutting edge of the blade and counts as one layer of steel. This allows for consistency along the entire length of the edge while creating a strong base for the additional steel layers to be added to.
The other 66 layers consist of two different pieces of stainless steel folded 33 times. These two pieces sandwich the core to produce the total 67 layers. The outer 66 layers of stainless steel provide corrosion resistance while being the base for the Tushime or "Hammered-Texture" design.
The handle is made of Rosewood and features steel and copper accents. This provides a more Western-style aesthetic that would fit carving-knife in with most kitchen decor.
The handle ergonomics are also traditionally Western. They are contoured to provide comfort while using the blade for long periods of time. The base of the blade closest to the hand has been deburred and rounded to cause less pinching and finger discomfort.
The 8.1 inch Bread knife allows you to easily cut your bread without crushing it. The serrated edge will power through the thick crush, but won’t compress the inner part of the loaf.
