Thanks to the good price-performance ratio, this knife is standard in many hotels, restaurants and cooking schools. Suitable for weighing herbs, slicing, cutting and dicing of meat, vegetables and salads. Medium pointed shape supports the pulling cut and thus a safe and fatigue-free working. Blade made of high quality chrome molybdenum steel, hardened in a vacuum process to 56 - 57 Rockwell hardness. Highly polished surface for maximum rust resistance and edge retention. Hand sharpened for perfect sharpness. Standard plastic handle made of particularly non-slip and pleasantly grippy material (TPE). The well-formed protective nose provides a secure hold and reduces the risk of slipping of the knife-guiding hand. The plastic handle is suitable for contact with foodstuffs and complies with the requirements of the following legislation (in each case including all additions and in the version valid at the time of the declaration): Regulation (EU) No 1935/2004 on materials and articles (including active and intelligent food contact materials and articles) intended to come into contact with foodstuffs and repealing directives 80/590/EEC and 89/109/EEC, as amended. Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 of 14.01.2011 relating to plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs. The knives are dishwasher-proof. To protect the cutting edge, however, we recommend manual cleaning.
