Forged from remarkable expertise, the Kramer by ZWILLING Meiji knife series is a collaboration between ZWILLING J.A. Henckels and Bob Kramer, the first Master Bladesmith to specialize in kitchen cutlery. The potent core of FC61 fine carbide stainless steel is protected by 100 layers of nickel and stainless steel. Beneath its distinctive exterior, Kramer's distinctive etched ladder Damascus pattern provides added durability. Thanks to an innovative, ice-hardened process, the FRIODURx2 blades offer remarkable durability, sharpness, and cutting performance. The ergonomic charcoal Pakkawood handles have a complex curvature that mirrors the palm, ensuring a secure and supremely comfortable grip. Exquisite to hold and behold, the handles feature a decorative center pin handcrafted in Kramer's Washington workshop.

BEATIFUK KNIFE

Outstanding knife. Extremely sharp out of the box with excellent edge retention and balance. The handle feels comfortable during long prep shifts, and the blade has enough weight for smooth rock chopping while still being precise. Beautiful finish and very solid craftsmanship. Performs great in a professional kitchen environment. Definitely a premium workhorse knife worth the investment.

Unlike any other knife out there!

This knife is the most stunning one in my whole collection. My wife gave this to me as a early birthday present and I can't be happier with it. The expert craftsmanship that is used in the collaboration between Kramer and Zwilling is something that I don't think I've ever seen anything like before. Amazing product!

Perfection.

I've never had the pleasure to hold, handle, or use such a beautiful, balanced Chef's knife. It is as if the blade grips what it is slicing into. The handle is incredibly comfortable and makes prep work a breeze.
