KAI Seki Magoroku Composite Santoku Knife, 16.5cm

Having received the Red Dot Design Award in 2013, the Seki Magoroku 
Composite Series is the symbol of contemporary design expertise from Kai. The series combines dynamism and lightness with a  composite blade of two steel grades, laminated and bonded 
using copper solder.

This results in a stunning flash of copper running along the blade length that turns the blade into a highlight 
of high-tech engineering. In combination with the pale wooden handle, the knives are futuristic, light, and sophisticated. And most importantly, the knives ensure 
ultimate sharpness and extraordinary overall performance.
