Chef Knife

The chef knife is the favorite knife of every professional and amateur cook, and not without reason. It has perhaps the most uses of any other kitchen knife, as you can use it to cut large portions, finely chop or dice vegetables and fruits, as well as 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 sufficient to give you the weight and power you need, while its length covers a wide range of everyday tasks.

Blade Material

The diamond-like carbon coated blade (DLC) is extremely hard and durable. The black coating increases the hardness of the steel surface from 58 to 104 Rockwell hardness scale (a knife with a hardness above 56 HRC is considered good).

Its exceptional resistance makes it almost immune to adverse external influences and the diamond-like surface is also extremely resistant to heat.

Handle

The high-performance DLC technology is perfected by the innovative, slip-resistant Hexagon Power Grip. With its non-slip handle structure, it provides ultimate safety in every situation and ensures exceptional control.

Even in turbulent, wet, or other challenging working conditions, you have a firm grip on the knife, allowing you to always use your blade safely and accurately.

Cutting Surface

Cuts are recommended to be made on wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Glass, stone, and marble cutting surfaces are unsuitable as they may 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 immediately (with a mild detergent) and dry it with a soft cloth. Especially if you have cut acidic foods, you should wash the knife immediately after use.

For your own safety, you should always wipe the knife away from your body and away from its edge, using 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.

Sharpening

No matter how sharp a knife is at first, after some use it needs sharpening, something you can achieve with a sharpener, sharpening stone or strop.

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 through a piece of paper. On the other hand, a knife that needs sharpening will struggle and its cutting will be rough.

It is also advisable to sharpen your knives with a professional occasionally, to fix any damage to the blade's edge and to maintain sharpness.
