The Bob Kramer Euro Stainless Chef’s Knife (26 cm) is a powerhouse in the kitchen - combining strength, elegance, and balance to tackle even the largest culinary tasks with ease. Its long, stable blade and solid weight make it ideal for slicing meat, chopping herbs, and breaking down larger vegetables with precision.

At the heart of the blade is an SG2 powder steel core, surrounded by 100 layers of steel with alternating hardness levels. This layered construction delivers incredible edge retention, flexibility, and cutting strength. Thanks to the CRYODUR® ice-hardening process at -196 °C, the blade reaches an impressive 63 Rockwell hardness - ensuring long-lasting sharpness and performance.

Each blade is adorned with a unique damascus pattern, created through a special surface treatment that makes every knife a one-of-a-kind piece of functional art. Beyond beauty, the pattern reflects the craftsmanship and dedication behind every Bob Kramer knife.

The handle is made from Micarta - a multi-layered material of canvas and resin - known for its moisture resistance, durability, and dimensional stability. Combined with the knife’s weight, it ensures a secure, non-slip grip and ergonomic comfort. Stainless steel rivets and a decorative logo add to the knife’s refined appearance.

Handcrafted in Seki, Japan - a city with a rich history of sword and knife making - this knife blends traditional Japanese techniques with modern innovation. The result is a tool appreciated by professional chefs and passionate home cooks alike.
