It is a knife for daily use, made for boneless meat, fish, vegetables and fruit. The blade is forged from 67-layer Damascus steel, and the red G-10 handle is fitted with a stainless steel bolster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlade and steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade is forged from \u003cstrong\u003e67 layers of Damascus steel\u003c\/strong\u003e and hardened to \u003cstrong\u003e59–61 HRC\u003c\/strong\u003e. A blade this hard holds its edge well through regular cooking, and you can restore it on a whetstone when it needs sharpening. In return, keep the hard edge away from bones, frozen food and glass boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade has a \u003cstrong\u003econvex edge\u003c\/strong\u003e: its sides curve gently into the cutting edge rather than meeting in a flat, V-shaped bevel. Its outline follows the traditional pchak, the shape that gives this knife its name.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandle and balance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe handle is made of \u003cstrong\u003ered G-10\u003c\/strong\u003e, and a \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel bolster\u003c\/strong\u003e joins it to the blade.

Wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and do not leave it in the sink for long. Cut on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, and leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade. Store the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items, use a honing rod between sharpenings and resharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Sultan series\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/sultan\"\u003eSultan collection\u003c\/a\u003e is inspired by the achievements of the Ottoman Empire, with Damascus blades whose shapes draw on classic Asian pchaks, tugri and kayik.
