What you'll notice while cooking

• Specifically for vegetables: The wide, straight blade makes precise cutting easy and ensures uniform pieces.
• VG-10 Damascus steel: The 3-layer blade combines long-lasting sharpness with extra strength and wear protection.
• Stays sharp for a long time: Thanks to its hardness of 61 HRC, the knife retains its sharpness for a long time, even with frequent use.
• 15-degree sharpening angle: Ensures precise cuts and little resistance during slicing.
• Hammered blade: The dimples in the blade reduce contact with ingredients, meaning vegetable slices stick less to the knife during cutting. Additionally, the hammered finish gives the knife its characteristic appearance.
• Comfortable grip: The dark wooden handle feels pleasant in the hand and offers great control during cutting.
• Good balance: The knife feels stable and is easy to guide during both fine and fast cutting tasks.
• Made for daily use: Strong materials and careful finishing ensure you can rely on it for years.
• Stylish finish: The dark wood and black details give the knife a calm appearance that fits well with the rest of your kitchen equipment.

• 5-year warranty: On material and manufacturing defects.

How to keep the knife sharp
With a few simple maintenance tips, the knife will remain pleasant to use and retain its sharpness longer.

• Wash the knife by hand in warm water with a little dish soap.
• Dry it thoroughly immediately after washing.
• Regularly use a whetstone or sharpening steel to maintain sharpness.
• Store the knife in a knife block, on a magnetic strip, or in a protective sheath.
• Use a wooden or plastic cutting board to keep the blade sharp longer.
