Know before you buy
The curved bolster is designed to support the 'pinch grip,' allowing you to hold the knife more comfortably and securely. It encourages a professional cutting technique that reduces hand fatigue during repetitive tasks like peeling or garnishing.
Yes, the pan is fully compatible with all hob types, including induction. Its aluminum core ensures even heat distribution, while the stainless steel exterior provides the necessary magnetic properties for induction heating.
While the ice-hardened steel is designed to retain its edge longer than standard blades, you should still hone it regularly with a sharpening steel. When it eventually needs a professional edge, the laser-controlled geometry makes it straightforward to sharpen.
Yes, the pan is oven-safe up to 300 °C. This makes it ideal for searing proteins on the stovetop and finishing them in the oven.
To keep the birchwood in good condition, avoid submerging it in water or using harsh cleaning chemicals. Simply wipe it down with a damp cloth and occasionally apply a food-safe wood oil to maintain the finish.
Yes, the integrated pour spouts are designed to provide a clean, controlled pour for liquids and sauces. This helps minimize spills and keeps your stovetop cleaner during cooking.
