KAI BREAD KNIFE 22.5 CM, TIM M?LZER
The Kai Bread Knife Tim M?lzer with a blade length of 22.5 cm scratches hard crusts and cuts the soft crumb evenly. Also for large fruits such as pineapple. The innovative serrated edge of the Kai Shun bread knives is one of the revolutionary developments from KAI. The waves of the blade run outwards from the center of the knife in the opposite direction. As a result, the bread is not torn, but cut perfectly with every movement. This reduces the crumbling of the bread during cutting to a minimum. For the trend-setting Shun Premier Tim M?lzer series, KAI developed six more knives made of 32 layers of corrosion-resistant Damascus steel. This is refined with a hand-finished Carvingmered surface, known in Japan as Tsuchime, thus combining timeless aesthetics and ultimate sharpness. The blades have a solid core made of VG-10 steel with a hardness of 61?1 HRC. Analogous to the limited anniversary knife, the series also placed emphasis on optimal grip in addition to extreme hardness. The Shun Premier Tim M?lzer series offers professional cutting tools from bread knives to Santoku, which will set new standards in the premium segment with maximum functionality in a timeless design.
True to Tim M?lzer's premise: "A good knife not only makes work easier, but also helps to succeed", each of the carefully crafted Damascus knives has been meticulously tailored to its respective area of application by the Japanese blacksmiths from Seki City. Due to the particularly symmetrical shape of their walnut handle, all shapes also guarantee precise cutting performance for both right- and left-handed people.

KAI BREAD KNIFE 22.5 CM, TIM M?LZER - CARE
The best care of Kai Tim M?lzer knives is to rinse under hot water immediately after use. Then dry carefully with a soft tea towel (cotton). Kai Tim M?lzer knives are not dishwasher safe, as the salts of the cleaning agents damage the blades and wooden handles. Knives with natural wood handles should be greased with a little vegetable oil from time to time.
