8.3" Carving Knife - Yi Series (B27)
A dedicated 210mm carving blade built for one job: long, clean slices through roasts, hams and poultry in a single draw. The Yi Series pairs a 67-layer Damascus exterior with a 10Cr15CoMoV core, ground to a fine 15-per-side edge that glides rather than tears. Full-tang construction through a rosewood handle gives it the reach and balance a chef knife can't match at the carving board.

DESCRIPTION
This is the knife for the roast at the table. The 8 inch carving blade lays down long, clean slices of turkey, roast beef, ham or a whole chicken in a single stroke, so each cut keeps its shape and the juices stay where they belong instead of being torn out.
67-Layer Damascus, Made for Clean Slices
The blade is forged from a 10Cr15CoMoV high-carbon stainless core wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus steel, then vacuum heat-treated to 60-62 HRC. That hardness holds a keen edge through a full carving session, so the blade glides rather than drags and every slice comes off even. Each blade carries its own flowing Damascus pattern, fitting for the knife that comes out in front of guests.
Rosewood Handle, Full Tang Control
The rosewood handle is built around a full tang and triple-riveted for the balance you want when guiding a long blade through a large cut. There is no flex and no rattle, just steady, confident control from heel to tip.

The carving knife your roast has been waiting for
The Yi Series is Xinzuo's everyday Damascus workhorse, and the B27 carving knife is the cut built for the table. A long, narrow 210mm blade tracks straight through the meat so each slice comes off whole and even. Where a chef knife is short and tall for chopping on the board, this profile is made to draw the full length of the edge across a roast in one pass. Confident, technical, and right for the job.

Why a carving knife
One stroke, one clean slice
A short chef knife forces a sawing motion that shreds and drags on a large roast. The B27's 210mm blade is long enough to slice a leg of lamb, brisket or turkey breast end-to-end in a single draw, so you get even slices that hold together and present cleanly on the plate. The narrow profile reduces drag through the cut, and the fine 15-per-side edge does the work without crushing the meat.

- 15° per side

- Even slices in one draw
The steel
67-layer Damascus over a 10Cr15CoMoV core
The cutting core is 10Cr15CoMoV, a cobalt-bearing stainless steel hardened to 60±2 HRC for edge retention through repeated carving. Around it sit 66 layers of 316/316L stainless Damascus cladding, forge-laminated into the signature 67-layer pattern. The blade is vacuum heat treated and deep-frozen to stabilise the grain, then ground to 15 per side (12-15) so the edge bites early and stays sharp longer between sharpenings.

In the hand
Full tang, rosewood, built to balance
The blade runs full-tang through a rosewood handle secured with three rivets, one a decorative mosaic pin. At 235g across a 340mm total length, the weight sits forward enough to carry the slice but stays light enough for the controlled, repeated strokes carving demands. The 2.2mm spine keeps the blade slim so it parts meat with minimal resistance. Hand wash and dry only.

FAQs
What is a carving knife used for?
Slicing cooked meat. The long 210mm blade draws through a roast, ham, turkey or brisket in one stroke for even slices that present cleanly, where a shorter chef knife tends to saw and tear.
How is this different from a chef knife?
A chef knife is short and tall for chopping and prep on a board. This carving blade is long and narrow to slice large cooked cuts end-to-end with minimal drag. Different jobs, different shapes.
What steel is the blade?
A 10Cr15CoMoV cutting core clad in 66 layers of 316/316L stainless Damascus, forming the 67-layer Damascus pattern, hardened to 60±2 HRC.
What is the edge angle?
Ground to 15° per side (12-15°), a fine edge that slices cleanly without crushing the meat.
Is it dishwasher safe?
No. Hand wash and dry the blade to protect the edge and the rosewood handle.
What handle does it have?
A rosewood handle on a full tang, secured with three rivets including one decorative mosaic pin. It weighs 235g with a 340mm total length.
Is it covered by warranty?
Yes, a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects, handled via xinzuo.com.au.
