Tim Mälzer Kamagata – Kitsch impossible
The prominent German "Küchenbulle" is behind this professional collection from KAI: Kamagata, a series of kitchen knives as honest and authentic as Tim Mälzer himself. In this collection, Mälzer's expertise and demands for kitchen tools perfectly combine with the skills of Japanese knife makers.
Kamagata knives impress with their high functionality, exceptionally solid quality, and minimalist design. Tim Mälzer was inspired by a traditional blade shape during the development. The name "Kamagata" (Japanese for "sickle-shaped") is derived from this. The knives receive their characteristic, striking contour through a significant arching of the blade.
The archaic form, together with the polished finish of the stainless steel blade and the black handle, gives the Kamagata knife an absolutely masculine look. However, this should not prevent women from taking this matter into their own hands as well.
The Blade
The blades are made of stainless DIN 4116 steel, are double-edged, and have a hardness of 56 (±1) HRC. What sounds like a modest number feels much higher in practice. Especially since the edges also boast a long service life, and resharpening is not particularly difficult. There's an eye-catcher on top, as each blade features Tim Mälzer's logo and his personal signature. Just so you don't forget who brought you these great knives.
The Handle
The polished handle is ergonomically shaped and suitable for both left- and right-handed users due to its symmetrical alignment. It feels comfortable in the hand and provides a secure and non-slip grip when cutting. Even prolonged work with these knives is particularly easy due to the balanced balance between handle and blade. The handle is made of polished POM plastic, it is robust, hygienic, and particularly easy to care for. Nice detail: At the end of the handle sits a small metal emblem with Tim Mälzer's kitchen bull icon. By using POM plastic, the knives of the Kamagata series also meet the hygiene regulations for professional kitchens.
The Range
The Kamagata collection comes with seven types of knives. The focus is on the essential processes in the kitchen – uncomplicated and without frills, matching Tim Mälzer's style and cooking method. The series includes two office knives, two utility knives, a Santoku (the traditional Japanese form for a universal knife), a ham knife, a bread knife, a classic chef's knife, and a hybrid chef's knife (a combination of Santoku and chef's knife). With this collection, you can easily cut everything that comes your way in the kitchen.
Our Conclusion
The KAI Kamagata series shows that an experienced restaurateur in the person of Tim Mälzer was involved in the development: The knives are very well adapted to the needs of professional chefs and gastronomic kitchens. The blade shapes allow for various applications and different cutting techniques. A criterion important to Tim Mälzer was also made possible: High quality at a reasonable price. Butch thanks KAI and Tim Mälzer for these knives!
