BOKER DAMASCUS BLACK
With the successful cutlery series Boker Damascus
Black, we present kitchen knives with a stunning
look and feel, and above-average performance.
The best of two worlds: A traditional Japanese
chef’s knife - handmade in Solingen, Germany.
Not only do many top chefs swear by Japanese
kitchen knives - they are also becoming increasingly
popular with ambitious home cooks. The merits of
a knife with Japanese handles and the traditional
construction of a blade with stainless steel ferrule
are obvious, because delicate foods can be cut and
cooked very gently.
When chopping herbs, for example, the very fine
cut leaves hardly any essential oils. Flavors are
not lost, and the unwanted tears when chopping
onions can also be avoided. The perceived
sharpness when cutting is breathtaking, and
makes cooking an experience.
The secret of the unusual sharpness lies in the
material and its processing. The blade consists
of 37 layers of Damascus steel. The premium
blade steel VG-10, made in Japan, is used for
the core, and is characterized by a high degree
of hardness, toughness and a homogeneous
crystalline structure.
In a direct comparison of the cutting performance
with a product of an established Solingen kitchen
knife manufacturer according to DIN EN ISO
8442-5, the series Boker Damascus Black are not
only superior in the proverbial sense - the cutting
performance of our knives is more than 68%
higher than that of the competitor’s product in
the representative DIN test. In addition, the series
Boker Damascus Black convinces by an initial
sharpness that is far superior, making frequent
re-sharpening a thing of the past.
The handle material is black plywood, which, due
to its beautiful and dramatic color, emphasizes
the finely matted stainless steel ferrules and the
splendid grain of the razor-sharp Damascus blade.
Boker Damascus Black means cooking with style.
Available in eight practical sizes and shapes, for
every cutting chore in the kitchen, and delivered in
an attractive presentation box.
