NESMUK EXCLUSIVE C100 CHEF'S KNIFE 180 (VARIOUS HANDLE)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION EXCLUSIVE C100 CHEF'S KNIFE 180

EXCLUSIVE C100 - handcrafted precision and exceptional Damascus steel.
The blades of the C100 series are an expression of consummate craftsmanship. Typical for the C100 series is the elaborate double-sided, faceted hollow grind. Especially with the wider blade types, the facet makes it easier to remove the material from the blade.

The starting steels used in our Damascus steel for the C90 and C100 series are high-performance tool steels. A high carbon content and, among other things, tungsten result in material properties that are exceptional. The result is the extreme sharpness and outstanding service life of Nesmuk EXKLUSIV blades.

The C100 series chef's knife has 350 layers and a hardness of 62 to 63 HRC.

Thanks to the glass-like NPC coating (Nesmuk Protective Coating) developed together with the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology, the Nesmuk EXKLUSIV blades are protected against corrosion*.

The origin of a craftsman's tradition
350 layers of steel form the elegant pattern of wild damask with the finest draw on the cutting edge. The 180 mm long, faceted blade with a hollow grind on both sides ensures reduced sticking to the material being cut and makes the knife an all-rounder in any kitchen. Classic wild Damascus symbolizes the origin of this craftsmanship: the composition of different types of steel, specifically selected to combine their functional advantages to create a blade that is far superior to conventional mono-steel blades. Carbon content: 1.0%.

Mirror finish for extreme sharpness
Anyone who has ever cut with a genuine Damascus knife can feel the difference: the hand-sharpened blade bevel, polished to a mirror finish, offers unparalleled sharpness and reminds you of the origins of this craft with every cut.

The value of true craftsmanship
From the back of the blade with up to 3 mm of solid Damascus steel, the blade tapers from the center burr to a thousandth of a millimeter at the cutting edge: the double-sided hollow grind below the bevel is created 100% by hand in the Nesmuk forge.

*The cutting bevel of the blade is not coated. You should therefore always clean your Nesmuk EXKLUSIV knife after use. Clean the blade with washing-up liquid and under running water, then dry well. For special care, it is also suitable to oil the blade or the cutting bevel from time to time. We recommend acid-free oils such as our camellia oil.

Please do not use cleaning sponges with abrasive fabrics, these can scratch and damage the NPC coating. Also avoid soaking dried-on cutting debris and do not place the knife in a water bath. Cleaning in a dishwasher will damage any kitchen knife, but especially knives made of carbon steels.
