SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Cangshan TC Series 8" Chef’s Knife With Sheath is a serious tool built for those who expect uncompromising performance in the kitchen. Whether you’re carving through dense root vegetables or finely mincing herbs, this blade offers a level of precision, balance, and durability that stands up to the demands of daily prep work.
Forged from high-alloy Swedish 14C28N steel, this knife is engineered for superior performance. The fine-grained steel holds an edge up to five times longer than standard German X50CrMoV15 steel, meaning less time sharpening and more time getting the job done. Each blade is ice-hardened for long-lasting sharpness, and goes through Cangshan’s rigorous ULTRA6 heat treatment process to ensure optimal hardness and edge integrity. Rated at HRC 59 ± 2 on the Rockwell scale, this knife delivers a tough, sharp edge that resists wear and corrosion.
Expert bladesmiths hand polish and sharpen each edge to a razor finish, while the uniquely tapered tang and slim-profile handle offer a perfect balance that feels natural and agile in the hand. Cangshan’s patented angled bolster design allows for a comfortable pinch grip, giving you complete control over every cut. The handle is sleek, with a modern black finish and accented by an intricate mosaic rivet that adds a subtle touch of craftsmanship to the knife’s clean, contemporary lines. It's 13.76" overall and weighs 8oz.
The full tang construction ensures durability through the entire length of the knife, making it capable of withstanding heavy kitchen use without compromising on precision. Included is a carbonized solid ashwood half-open magnetic sheath—a smart, stylish solution that protects the blade and your fingers when not in use. Strong magnets inside the sheath hold the knife securely by the spine without dulling the edge. Order it today from SMKW!
