Born from a collaboration between ZWILLING and master blacksmith Bob Kramer, the Meiji chef's knife combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern engineering. Its FC61 steel core with a fine carbide content is protected by 100 layers of nickel and stainless steel, creating a distinctive acid-etched Damascus pattern that enhances durability.

The FRIODURx2 cold-hardened blade offers excellent edge retention, high corrosion resistance, and outstanding cutting performance. Hand-sharpened using the Honbazuke method and featuring a slim Japanese profile, it ensures exceptional precision. The ergonomic charcoal pakkawood handle conforms to the shape of the hand for a secure and comfortable grip, while the full tang construction guarantees optimal balance. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan.

Founded in Solingen, Germany, in 1731, ZWILLING is a global leader in the world of high-end culinary products. Combining German engineering, precision, and artisanal craftsmanship, the brand distinguishes itself with exceptional products – knives, cookware, small electrical appliances, and glassware – designed for passionate food lovers and discerning chefs.
