Designed to exacting standards exclusively for Sur La Table, Koh melds expert artisanship with groundbreaking technology
Revolutionary FC61 steel pairs fine carbide distribution with an astonishing 61 Rockwell hardness
Fine carbide distribution results in a blade that holds an incredibly sharp angle and is extremely durable, with no risk of chipping under normal use
Friodur2 hardening improves the microstructure of the steel for improved cutting performance, corrosion resistance and durability
Each blade is hand-honed to a blisteringly sharp angle of 9.5 to 12. Because blades are sharpened by hand, exact angle may vary slightly
Blades are polished to a mirror finish and have sandblasted katana edges
Each handle is individually weight adjusted, and undergoes a rigorous nine-step finishing process to ensure perfect ergonomic design
Comfort-oriented features such as a rounded spine, bolster and heel reduce cutting and slicing fatigue; knife is easy to hold in either an Eastern or a Western grip
