Lovely knives you have unboxed. I have a story about Zwilling. In 2008 I was working in Copenhagen, Denmark and making quite good money as a cycle tax driver. Zwillings had their own shop and had had a shop for years were closing down. They were selling all their German knives for a fraction of the price and of course they were selling well. They had two Damascus Cermax MD 67 powedered steel knives, one Damascus santoku and one Damascus 8 inch chefs knife, which actually were made in Japan. The steel was ZDP 189 and heat treated to Rockwell 67. No one was interested in these knives because they were expensive, and they intended to send them back to Germany. I had seen these knives before in the shop. Really beautiful with red Micarta handles in a wooden lacquered box. They were selling for around 350 US each. I offered to buy the pair for 250 US and they said no. I said well you will not have to send them back to Germany if I buy them. I told them how I really love these knives etc . The seller said I will ring to Germany and ask for you. Come back in 2 hours. I came back and I bought both for 250 US. Best deal I ever had for knives. Today these knives sell for up to 350US each on Amazon. Very high Rockwell hardened knives are brittle but in 12 years with careful use I only slightly damaged the point once on the chefs knife, and I managed to sharpen it back to a point. ZDP189 at Rockwell 67 are not easy to sharpen and patience is needed. Excuse the slightly off topic long comment.

Awesome video! Thanks. One note: the Damascus is 50 layers of two different steels on each side over the core cutting steel. You can see the layering because we expose the knife to an acid. The two steels react differently, therefore giving a different finish. We love FC61 on the Essential because it is less prone to chipping than other knives at that Rockwell level.

Great unboxing and comparison video! My Kramer story. My wife is a personal chef, and told me about an article in Saveur, "The Bladesmith" Bob Kramer, in 2000. I decided to get her a custom Kramer as a surprise birthday gift. I called Bob to order the knife, only to realize that It wasn't going to be ready in time for her b-day. Bob convinced me to buy 2 and make it a x-mas present. The caveat being it couldn't be a surprise, as he would not make a knife for someone without talking with them first. The birthday gift ending up being a conversation with Bob, and the anticipation of getting these amazing pieces of art, a 10" chef & 5" utility. These knives were a stretch for me back then, way before the days of Kramer knife lotteries and auctions. I can't thank Bob enough for urging me to get 2, as I would not be able to afford them now. One day about 10 years ago, I got a call from my wife, in tears. She had broken the tip off the 10"!!! Bob had her send it to him to check for any possible defect. He found none. His solution was to regrind the blade into a 7". Now my wife has to my knowledge the only 7" Kramer in the world. We have a Kramer-Zwilling Damascus also.

Your enthusiasm makes your videos worth watching! I've been cooking for well over 50 years. I still cook classic continental cuisine every opportunity I get. I have been wishing for a set of carbon steel knives for well over 25 years. For a while there was a company named Professional Cutlery Direct that used to import carbon steel Sabatier brand knives. As normal for me as soon as I got into a financial position where I could afford the knives they quit importing them. I don't even know if the company is still in existence. Likewise with Sabatier. I'm certain that as soon as I save the money to buy the Kramer carbon knives they will quit making them or importing them. Woe is me!

I try to go with hi carbon or tool steels with all my cutting tools reguardless of the task thats my jam I feel like it gets sharper and sharpens back easier and has a tougher edge in most cases. I dont mind a patina I think a knife that shows use is beautiful. I feel like having a stainless knife its like training wheels you think its benefiting you but its holding you back from achieving top performance and learning how to take care of your tools. I oil my knives daily if I use them or not and clean them after use and I dont have any issues with rusting. I have had rust spots when I am camping and cant keep them dry properly maintain them I get home sand it off and polish it up and its as good as new not sure why so many people want to turn their knifes into a crome bumper instead to take care of it and seek top performance

Chipping can happen more easily than you might think. We are not talking about big, visible chips but rather small, microscopic chips in the cutting edge. They will happen from banging against other things in the sink while washing mostly and not normal use on a cutting board. Granted if care is taken it should not happen much but over time these things have a way of adding up. The bottom line is they are fine but you have to work harder at being careful with them which you would not have to do with a cheap knife. These days you can get a $20 knife that cuts fine for six months then toss it and get another. At that rate you could get a new knife every six months for 7.5 years before you equaled the cost of the Kramer carbon steel knife and you could toss it ten feet into a sink and not care. That said I am not advocating buying a cheap knife. There is just something about a really nice (read more expensive) knife that has a value all its own. But on a pure bang-for-your-buck analysis the cheap knives are generally a better deal.

Indeed. You can use common sense to prevent chipping on a decent knife. I got one chip by making a dumb mistake against my better usual practices and accidentally bumped it, hard, into the sink while rinsing. Simple sharpening fixed that, though. I just use my softer steels for the very tough stuff and abuse and save the harder knives for more precise and slicing work.

I read the title as a comparison between carbon, stainless and Damascus steel. To me this means a comparison between the steels, which in turn means cutting performance and edge sharpness retention, etc. This also means that details about the handles, etc are irrelevant.

Why do people now days call pattern welded steel "Damascus" it's a confusing term because people mix up 3 types of forging methods, is it true pattern welded, that is then acid etched to bring out the pattern? or is it just an acid pattern put on the blade, the way fake hamons are done. Or is it wootz ? The term damascus confuses a lot of sword and knife buyers. I see all 3 referred to as damascus, so this knife is a pattern welded forged blade that is acid etched after the pattern welding was completed? I wish companies would use correct forging terminology so it doesn't confuse the market. Now when anybody see's a pattern on a blade they say damascus, even if its Japanese folding, which is nothing like damascus.

I have a 10" damascus version of this Kramer/Zwilling chef's knife. It's a poor performer when cutting hard vegetables because the damascus is very heavily etched to the point of almost three dimensional. Each layer of the damascus has a prominent ridge and those ridges create a great deal of resistance when trying to cut through hard vegetables. You can kind of see those ridges in the video. The damascus version is a very pretty knife but if I could do it again, I'd get the carbon version instead.

The stainless Kramer knife from purely a blade point of view is one of the finest knives I've held. The handle is another story but I really don't care that much about that. People went crazy over the carbon because it's the same he uses in his shop. I've heard him say since it's only 2 elements carbon and iron it can get sharper than stainless. Quite honestly after using the stainless for a month now, that's splitting hairs.

Anyway Kizer is one of the worlds best blade companies. The Chinese have really been putting out some gorgeous blades.

Ryky--I have the carbon Kramer, But, I consider patina a positive--not rust, but the coloring similar to the metal finish on a custom rifle or shotgun. Mine has not yet begun coloring, but I will let it "blue" over time. I am hoping it will react in the same way. It is a masterpiece of a knife--the Damascus is just added beauty. Of course, the knives I have forged were carbon steel--though some were "cable damascus"; also high carbon and messy to forge on an anvil (required lots of flux and that sprays all over).And, at white hot, it requires fast from forge to anvil.

It’s an alternating tan and black linen Micarta. The resin is usually transparent. Thanks for the video.

Don't feel embarrassed about your daughter calling to you. Everyone of those moments should be cherished because you turn around twice and they are out the door to begin a life of their own. I missed a lot of my daughter's childhood due to work and the demands of work. But I got redemption when our granddaughter was born. I now have the time to enjoy those moments again and also the honor of guiding some of her life.

Just subscribed. Also just bought a full set of the Kramer Damascus. The quality is fantastic, and the pattern and handle shape are just what I was looking for. I would love to hear your take in the Damascus in a review soon! Also a video I'd love to see is electric sharpeners (with angle adjustment and grit wheels) vs. hand sharpening on stones. Lastly, I'm totally for a lottery (maybe 4 numbers as that gives you 10,000 number combos for better randomness) IMHO of course.

I have an old set of Friedr Dick chef knives and the handles were the same way...full tang to the base of the handle. Saving up for my stones to make those knives razor sharp once again!

You can also get a narrower 8" French style in the Damascus style knife. Before you pay, you'll want to inspect the butt end of the tang, and make sure there's no gap between the micarta, and the tang.

Sounds great about knives and lottery. Have you reviewed a ceramic knife that has ridges so potato doesn't stick to it? I have a black Kyocera but potato sticks to it while slicing so I don't use it much at all.

The damascus knife is actually San Mai Damascus. Meaning there is a layer of carbon steel down the center of the knife for the cutting edge and damascus layers on either side. The dark gray on the blade is high carbon steel and the silver pattern is lower carbon steel. Really nice knives! Also be careful if you use the term San Mai, Cold Steel trademarked the term even though it isnt theirs and has been around longer than the company has

actually both the steels used in the "Damascus" on a Kramer knife are stainless. I believe he uses a high nickel content for the "shiney part". Not lower and higher carbon content. The sanmai in his licensed Henckels like you said is a premade layer of 2 softer steels separately laminated to the hard center layer. His hand made ones and those of Murray Carter and many more skilled, lower production smiths are Warikomi (a much more difficult and time consuming technique with many rejects that have to be scrapped, hence the higher cost) There are many companies that simply "cookie cut" PREMADE san mai rolled steel. This decreases cost, but defeats the purpose why we USED to buy "Damascus" knives in the first place, because of the extra skill required of the smith to make them. Now days people just buy them because they look cool. The Kraner/Henckels sanmai is top notch and it's shielding SG2, an amazing steel, but most Damascus is no longer anything but cosmetics. The ergonomics of the Kramer didn't work FOR ME, but I have much admiration for them and would heartily recommend them for people whose style and size, it fit. I agree, I cannot believe a company with no connection to Japan except a few subcontractors that reside there, has the gall to trademark a name of a style they don't even use for 95% of their blades! And only a very very small percentage of their output comes from there! They design and make good knives, but to trademark that name is disgusting. I've used their product that friends have owned, but refuse to own one myself

You pointed out the full tang, but not the fact that the tang is tapered from bolster to butt. This is one of the reasons it feels so light. It also moves balance towards the blade. This is a good thing with Micarta handled knives especially, as micarta is very heavy. I would like to know WHAT stainless is used. As there are many, and the properties of various stainless steels can vary a good bit.
@Burrfection

the full tang comment, refers to the profile of the tang, as in , if you were to hold the knife up and look at the side. the tang encompasses the entire profile of the handle. so, it is a full tang, and also, yes, it does have a taper to it.
@kmcgovern2012
7 жыл бұрын
Burrfection Yes, I wasn't saying you didn't identify it as a full tang, which it is. I was just pointing out that the fact that it's tapered is not real common, and it is very functional and attractive. I just would have pointed that out is all.

Henckels doesn't like to say what their proprietary blends are, but they are usually off the shelf steels that they buy and then trademark. FC61 is claimed to be "fine carbide" and the target hardness is 61. Based on Henckels other Japanese work, it is likely it is VG10. Based on the fact that VG10 IS a steel with fine carbides, whose best hardness range is 61 also makes sense. But when I've cut with the Kramer FC61 knife I used to have it didn't "feel" like VG10, nor did it sharpen like VG10. To me, and this is a complete GUESS, It's AEB-L steel. It IS fine carbide with a perfect hardness of 61. AEB-L is very commonly used in Japanese knives, so the smiths and engineers would be comfortable with it (but is NOT used in any other Henckels knife to my knowledge). Kramer does have the clout to specify it as a design element and Henckels does have the economic clout to purchase it in quantities to suit the needs of production. It is a steel with a LOT of research and development so the german engineers who approved it and the German accountants that approved it would feel comfortable so quality assurance, production lines would be smooth We'll find out sooner or later. rest assured, no matter what it is, it IS good steel. My issue was ergonomics, which did not fit my body and my style. I have nothing but praise for the quality

Rick I heard you say you had a knife the was rc66 which knife was that? And what is your favorite chefs knife? I have Shun Classic but before vg-10. A Sanelli. A Forchener stamped (I wish all knives had its handle) Wustof pairing. Still looking for the perfect blend of handle comfort and steel toughness and hardness. Was checking out Shun Reserve handle felt nice but they didn't have 8"chef cause of course they are discontinued.
