A good chef's knife is where most proper knife collections begin. This user-friendly knife in a classic shape will assist with all your basic food preparation tasks, such as slicing and chopping. A good chef's knife can completely change the feel of cooking.
The Shoso blade is made from 5CR15MoV stainless steel with a hardness of 56 (±1) HRC (a knife with a hardness above 56 HRC is considered good), which guarantees a high and uniform level of hardness as well as long-lasting cutting durability. The curved sharpening gives the knives a stable edge, ideal for precise cuts. The matt finish highlights the knife's unique finesse.
The blade length is 18 cm.
The matte handle made from 18-8 stainless steel is particularly sturdy and guarantees a professional grip thanks to its symmetrical elliptical shape. The integrated diamond pattern offers a safe and comfortable grip during cutting.
The length of the handle is 13 cm.
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.
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.
It is not recommended to wash it in the dishwasher but by hand, in order to protect its material and maintain its sharpness for a long time.
No matter how sharp a knife is initially, after some use it needs sharpening, which you can achieve with a sharpener, whetstone, or honing rod.
You can tell if your knife cuts well with an easy test using the knife and a piece of paper. A sharp knife can easily and cleanly cut a piece of paper. In contrast, a knife that needs sharpening will struggle and its 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 edge and to maintain sharpness.
