The SENKEN Tsunami 15-Piece Damascus Knife Block Set has Japanese VG10 Damascus steel blades and blue resin burl wood handles. It includes seven kitchen knives, six non-serrated Damascus steak knives, a sharpening steel and an acacia hardwood knife block.
Each blade has a Japanese VG10 steel core with 33 layers of Damascus steel on each side, making a 67-layer blade with a flowing pattern. The blades are rated at 62 HRC. The kitchen knives are ground to a 15° double-bevel edge.
The handles are made from hand-selected burl wood stabilized with a blue resin blend, then shaped and polished. The wood and resin resist moisture and wear. Rounded contours give a firm grip. Natural variations in the grain and resin make each handle different.
