Cangshan's A Series: A Fusion of Luxury and Practicality

Unveiling the Award-winning Design of Cangshan's A Series Knives

The A Series stands out for its unique use of dense and durable African Blackwood in the knife block, which accentuates the fluid curves and dark Walnut handles of the knives. This combination creates a knife that is both luxurious and practical. Each forged and full tang knife features flush seams, marrying the distinct materials while allowing the knife to comfortably fit the chef’s grip. A full range of essential kitchen and steak knives are securely housed in the richly textured, dark wood knife block.

The design realization of the A Series is a testament to Cangshan's commitment to quality and craftsmanship. Each full tang knife blade is forged from German sourced (Solingen) high-alloy steel (X50CrMoV15) with a 58 +-2 on the Rockwell Hardness Scale. Walnut wood handles with a 1000 Janka Hardness are shaped and fitted to the tang to create flush seams. The knife block is made from dense and durable African Blackwood with a 3670 Janka Hardness Rating.

The A Series is not just about aesthetics; it is designed to enhance the user's cooking experience. The quality and craftsmanship of the knives ensure they precisely and effectively perform their cutting functions, giving the user a responsive and refined tactile experience that enhances and augments their skills and process.

The A Series includes an 8 inch Diamond Coated Honing Steel, 8 inch Serrated Knife, 8 inch Chef's Knife, 7 inch Santoku Knife, 6 inch Boning Knife, 5 inch Serrated Utility Knife, 3.5 inch Paring Knife, and 8 pieces of 5 inch Serrated Steak Knives, all securely housed in an A Series Wood Knife Block.
