Kaiden Shinka Knife Series

The very first Japanese knives to wear the Kaiden brand were a subtle damascus range sharpened by one of the great Togishi workshops in Japan. Craftsmen get older and eventually retire and along with them the knives they produce. There were some pretty big boots to fill but we are certain you will love this series.

Shinka means evolution or progress and this range of Japanese knives from Kaiden are a true evolution of the very first range. 

The Kaiden Shinka range has a core of premium stainless steel wrapped in 32 layers of damascus, with a double hamaguri grind and 50/50 micro bevel. The Kaiden double hamaguri grind slices through food with less effort than other Japanese knives.

Both the spine and chin of the knife are gently rounded for comfort.

The handles are pakkawood and nickel brass trim, a unique design and modern interpretation of the traditional Japanese octagonal style. The rounded underbelly and overall profile and taper suit a wide range of hand sizes. 

• Light acid etched damascus 
• Pakkawood and nickel brass trim handle
• VG10 stainless steel
• Super sharp out of the box
• Suitable for left or right handers

Next level performance by Kaiden. You will not want to put this knife down.

Knife care for stainless steel knives

• Never put in the dishwasher.
• Dry thoroughly after handwashing and do not store unless fully dry.
• Do not cut through bones, frozen foods or extremely dense items.
• Always cut with a smooth action and never twist the blade, sideways pressure will damage the blade.
• Use Japanese waterstones to sharpen your knife.
