401 layers (Damascus) steel
65 HRC - brilliant elegance
The 401 layers of flexible Damascus steel enclose a cutting layer made of one of the purest carbon steels ever. This guarantees maximum sharpness and an exceptional hardness of 65 HRC. Thanks to the flexible Damascus steel on the outside, the hard cutting layer in the middle is less susceptible to breakage. The perfect combination of hardness and flexibility.
100% Handmade
The C150 blades are ground entirely by hand in order to be able to carve out the cutting layer perfectly and centrally. The double-sided, faceted hollow grind is a very demanding work step in terms of craftsmanship that requires skill and a steady hand. Only the best knifemakers with many years of experience carry out this work at the Nesmuk manufactory.
Exceptional hardness and sharpness
From fire welding and forging, hardening, tempering and grinding the hollow grind to assembling the handle. The production of a Nesmuk EXKLUSIV knife takes almost four dozen steps. The result is exceptional sharpness.
Corrosion resistant thanks to
Nesmuk Protective Coating
Thanks to the glass-like NPC coating (Nesmuk Protective Coating) developed together with the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology, the Nesmuk EXKLUSIV blades are protected against corrosion.
The cutting bevel of the blade is not coated. Therefore, you should always clean your Nesmuk EXKLUSIV knife after use. Clean the blade with detergent and under running water, dry well afterwards.
Precision Meets Elegance:
The EXKLUSIV C150 Chef's Knife 180.
High concentration, over many hours or even days, is required to carve out the cutting layer of finest carbon steel, which can be seen black under wild damascus - a feat of craftsmanship that only a few blacksmiths in the world have mastered to perfection.
Boasting a 180 mm blade length and a sleek 3 mm thickness, this premium chef's knife defines elegance and functionality. Its distinctive double-sided hollow grind not only promises adaptability but also sets a new standard for lightweight chef knives.
Engineered with a signature V-grind edge, this knife caters to both left and right-handed chefs seamlessly.
Aesthetic and ergonomic
Ergonomic and solid handles for fatigue-free work: The design of the Nesmuk handle is as aesthetic as it is practical. For the wooden handles, Nesmuk uses only the best, often hand-picked pieces of exquisite quality. With wood as a naturally grown material, each handle is unique due to its individual grain, color shades and inclusions.

Care Instructions
Hand-forged damask knives usually require extensive care to prevent them from rusting. All Nesmuk EXCLUSIVE knives are finished with the exclusive NPC coating (Nesmuk Protective Coating). NPC is a silicon coating only a few micrometers thick, which is applied using microwave-generated plasmas and permanently preserves the blade. The seeming end of the knife is not coated and can therefore tarnish and, if not cared for, rust. Therefore, do not leave your Nesmuk EXKLUSIV in liquids for too long. Rinse and dry your knife after use.
We recommend regularly sharpening the edge with a suitable, fine sharpener such as the Nesmuk strop. This maintains the sharpness and protects against tarnishing or rusting of the edge. We recommend maintaining the blade from time to time with an acid-free oil, such as our camellia oil.
