Kuorimaveitsi Kai Premier Tim Mälzer — terä 10 cm, teräs, 1 kpl

The kai Shun Premier Tim Mälzer paring knife is a compact kitchen knife designed for precise peeling, trimming and small cutting tasks. It combines the high-quality material properties of the Shun Classic line with the distinct visual design of the Premier Tim Mälzer series: a hammered Tsuchime texture on the upper portion of the blade, a fine matte Damascus grain across the midsection and a highly polished, precision cutting edge. The blade is built around a hard, durable steel core and is paired with a medium-brown grained pakkawood handle for balance and handling.

Advantages

The combination of a hardened steel core and a polished cutting edge delivers excellent sharpness and long-lasting cutting performance. The Tsuchime hammer finish reduces food adhesion on the blade, while the matte Damascus surface provides controlled cutting and a refined appearance. The compact 10 cm blade length offers maneuverability for detailed work and the pakkawood handle gives a comfortable, secure grip.

Suitable for

• Peeling and trimming fruit and vegetables
• Precision tasks such as deveining shrimp and removing seeds
• Small, detailed cutting and garnishing work

Recommendations

Hand wash and dry the knife immediately after use to preserve the steel core and finish. Regularly hone the edge with a suitable steel and sharpen professionally as needed to maintain peak performance. Avoid cutting on hard surfaces such as ceramic or glass to prevent edge damage.
