Manufactured in Seki, Japan, this knife features an SG2 (MC53) micro-carbide powdered steel for a long lasting and durable product with an exceptionally beautiful 100 layer Chevron Damascus pattern. A traditional 3-step hand sharpening offers exceptionally high sharpness while the CRYODUR® ice-hardening process ensures the blade stays sharp. The fully rounded and mirror polished spine and coil create an ergonomic use as the Micarta wood handle features rivets with a unique Bob Kramer mosaic pin. Bob Kramer Damascus features the contemporary designs and exacting standards of legendary blade smith Bob Kramer. The Damascus line combines an extremely wide blade made from SG2 (MC63) micro-carbide powdered stainless steel in order to create a knife that is as beautiful as it is durable. With an exceptional 63 Rockwell Hardness for superior edge retention and edge angles between 9° and 12°, each Euroline knife is hand finished with a traditional 3-step process by the most skilled Japanese artisans. Bread Knives commonly feature sections of grooves - or serrations - in order to slice through the crustiest of breads. A good bread knife will be able to cut soft bread without crushing it while the serrations allow a proper sawing motion to create a clean cut. Ranging in sizes from 6-inches to 10-inches, a good bread knife can open up all kinds of culinary opportunities - a must have for every cook's knife collection.
