Know before you buy
Yes, this knife is a staple in professional kitchens worldwide. Its durable construction and ergonomic design are specifically engineered to handle the high-volume demands of professional chefs.
Yes, the handle is made from thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), which is designed to be non-slip. This material maintains a secure, comfortable grip even when your hands are wet or oily.
While the knife is technically dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing it to maintain the sharpness of the blade edge for a longer period. High-heat dishwasher cycles and harsh detergents can dull the blade over time.
The knife is intentionally balanced to reduce wrist fatigue during extended use. It is lightweight compared to forged knives, making it highly maneuverable for repetitive tasks like mincing and dicing.
The blade is made from high-quality stainless steel that is resistant to corrosion. To keep it performing at its best, you should hone it regularly with a sharpening steel and have it professionally sharpened or use a quality sharpener when the edge eventually dulls.
