## Long description

The Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Series Slicing knife Kai TDM-1704 features a 24 cm blade with a hard VG‑Max steel core wrapped in 32 layers of Damascus steel, combining durability with flexibility. The blade surface is divided into three textures — a hammered Tsuchime finish from the back to the middle, a fine matte Damascus grain in the midsection, and a highly polished precision cutting edge — paired with a medium brown grained pakkawood handle engraved with Tim Mälzer's bull's head. The symmetrical handle design and continuous tang provide balance and make the knife suitable for both left- and right-handed users.
Advantages
The VG‑Max core and 32-layer Damascus cladding deliver long-lasting sharpness and a resilient edge while preserving sufficient flexibility. The Tsuchime hammered surface reduces food adhesion by creating small air pockets along the blade. A polished cutting edge ensures precise, clean slices and the lightweight double-sided blade supports controlled, accurate cutting. The pakkawood handle offers a stable grip and balanced handling during prolonged use.
Suitable for
Slicing cooked and raw meats
Filleting fish and preparing sashimi-style cuts
Thinly slicing large vegetables and roasts

How to use
Use the slicing knife with long, smooth strokes, letting the blade do the work rather than forcing it. For best results slice in a single steady motion, maintaining contact between the edge and the food to achieve thin, even cuts. After use, hand wash the knife with mild detergent and dry immediately to protect the Damascus cladding and cutting edge. Store the knife in a block, sheath, or on a magnetic strip to avoid contact with other utensils.
Usage recommendations
Regularly hone the blade with a ceramic or fine steel honing rod to maintain edge alignment; sharpen on a whetstone when necessary. Avoid cutting on glass, stone, or metal surfaces and do not use the knife for chopping bones or frozen food to prevent damage to the edge.
