Know before you buy
This knife is forged from high-quality German stainless steel, which is known for its excellent edge retention and resistance to corrosion.
Ice-hardening is a heat-treatment process that improves the molecular structure of the steel. This results in a blade that is significantly stronger, more durable, and better at maintaining a sharp edge over time.
No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the blade and the handle, we recommend hand washing it with mild soap and drying it immediately after use.
The half-bolster design allows you to use the entire length of the blade, making it easier to sharpen the knife from heel to tip. It also provides a comfortable grip that encourages a proper pinch grip for better control.
Yes, while it is optimized for carving, the thin, sharp blade is also excellent for filleting fish and deboning poultry. The rounded spine adds extra comfort if you need to apply pressure during more detailed prep work.
