Product Name:KATAHIRO ZEN damascus harmmered Chef knife 3 pcs set - 8 inch Chef knife harmmered, 5 inch Santoku knife, 3.5 inch paring knife including bamboo holder The KATAHIRO KUBOTA ZEN series from the Designer Knife Edition is the successful symbiosis between Japanese forging art, traditional Far Eastern forms and European taste paired with high-tech materials. For the Zen series, knife designer and technical book author Ernst Siebeneicher-Hellwig chose to have Japanese high-performance steel forged into Damst steel blades in selected master forges. He placed great emphasis on spectacular damascus patterns. The pattern in the blades is reminiscent of Japanese meditation paintings where ink is dribbled into water.
