Cangshan’s German Design Award Winners for 2018

All we can say is wow. We could not have dreamed all our hard work, dedication to quality and craft and our passion for good design would have been so quickly recognized within the design world. Once again we are humbled to receive 4 more awards for the exceptional design of our N1 Series, W Series, J Series and our brand new TC Series.

The N1 Series is a story of balance, precision and great design. The ideas presented are conversations in bold contrast and the continuous journey between subtle and sharp. A minimal, sleek hollow-handle design ensure these knives are well balanced, both aesthetically and in the chef’s hand.

The W Series reflects the transparency, openness and harmony that allow practical function to seamlessly meld with forward-thinking aesthetics. Sharp, clear lines smoothly meld into the subtle, soft contours of the elegantly crafted German Steel knives while distinct hollow brass rivets cut through the full tang of the blade vividly emphasizing and perfectly matching knife and chef.

The J Series is a testament to the beauty of expert hand craftsmanship. Exceptionally sharp, minimalistic beautiful these hand sharpened blades feature unique Damascus patterns across the face of the VG10 high-alloy full tang blades. Rich, ultra-dense African Blackwood handles balance each knife while providing exceptional comfort and precision for the chef. Each knife comes with a dark Walnut wood magnetic Saya style sheath that is perfectly shaped to match and protect the knife’s distinct blade.

The TC Series is sleekly modern with the knife handle’s slim profile emphasizing the simple, smooth lines of the stunning knives. A singular mosaic rivet keenly offsets the straightforward aspects of the design, making the forged knife both bold and harmonious. A uniquely tapered tang make each knife comfortable and well balanced for precise cutting.
