The chef's knife is the favorite knife of every professional and amateur cook, and not without reason. It perhaps has the most uses of any other kitchen knife, as you can use it to cut large portions, chop or slice everything from vegetables and fruits to meat and fish. Its wide blade and curved edge make it ideal for quick chopping through the well-known rocking motion. The thickness of the blade at the spine is enough to give you the weight and power you need, while its length covers a wide range of daily tasks.
Chef Knife
Blade made of premium quality stainless steel
The blades of all the knives in the series are made from martensitic stainless steel. The basis for optimal functionality and durability of the blade is the use of the right steel alloy. The steel must produce the perfect combination of sharpness and corrosion protection. The blades in the series are extremely durable & sharp, offering high professional performance, without being too hard, making sharpening easier but also necessary at more infrequent intervals.
Ergonomic handle, comfortable grip
The high-aesthetic handle of the Swiss Classic series knives is extremely ergonomic and made of POM, a material that offers you unparalleled resistance to wear, can be sterilized, and has hardness and durability over a wide range of temperatures.
Cutting board
It is recommended to make cuts on wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Glass, stone, and marble cutting surfaces are unsuitable as they can cause permanent damage to the knife blades.
Cleaning
Wash the knife with warm water before using it for the first time. After each use, make sure to wash the knife without delay (with a simple detergent) and dry it with a soft cloth. Especially if you have cut acidic foods, you must wash the knife immediately after use.
For your safety, you should always wipe the knife away from your body and away from the edge, with a cloth or towel.
Sharpening
No matter how sharp a knife is initially, after some use it needs sharpening, something you can achieve with a sharpener, whetstone, or honing rod.
You can determine if your knife cuts well with an easy test using the knife and a sheet of paper. A sharp knife can easily and cleanly cut a sheet of paper. Conversely, a knife that needs sharpening will struggle and the cut will be jagged.
It is also recommended to occasionally have your knives sharpened by a professional to repair any potential damage to the blade's edge and to maintain its sharpness.
