The chef knife is the favorite knife of every professional and amateur chef, and for good 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 using 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.
Chef Knife
High-quality construction
The forged stainless steel is seamless and runs the entire length of the knife without joints and welds.
The dual-riveted handle provides ergonomic comfort while cutting.
Napoleon's stainless steel knives are suitable for use by both right-handed and left-handed individuals and have perfect balance for added comfort, precision, and satisfaction during handling.
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 that 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 dull.
It is also advisable to sharpen your knives with a professional occasionally, to repair possible damage to the blade's edge and to maintain sharpness.
