Description

Already the recipient of numerous design awards, the Seki Magoroku Composite series is the flagship of modern kai design. This series combines lightness with dynamism: the blade made of two steel grades (in English composite) is crossed by an exposed copper brazing seam. The steel grades are made separately in order to be bonded together with liquid copper in a subsequent processing step. The aesthetic result is extraordinary and makes this blade a jewel of Japanese forging. The light wood handle makes this series futuristic, light and of an exclusive refinement The knives guarantee absolute sharpness and extraordinary cutting performance.

The blade combines different surfaces and steel qualities: the polished and beveled gob passes over the satin-finished and rounded back of the SUS420J2 steel blade and ends with an edge made of particularly hard VG-MAX steel. These symmetrically sharpened blades combine minimalist aesthetics with high cutting performance and excellent corrosion resistance.
The clear handle with transverse pakka wood mottling is inserted seamlessly into the through tang and, thanks to its symmetrical shape, is suitable for both right- and left-handed users. Slender and light, it is agile and dynamic to hold. The seamless transition from the handle to the polished gob allows a comfortable and easy grip of the blade with thumb and forefinger.
