Full bolster

The full bolster reliably protects the fi ngers in everyday cooking and the balance makes agile and precision work easier.

Full tang

As an extension of the blade, the tang gives the knife reliable stability. In addition, as a counterweight it ensures the blade is balanced.

Hand guard

The handle sits in the hand comfortably and is curved slightly downwards at the heel to avoid slipping. The robust handle shells are secured with stainless steel rivets and manufactured seamlessly.

Hollow edge

Small air pockets are produced by the hollow edge on the depressions of the blade. The positive effect of this is that thin or soft food items are more easily removed from the blade during use.

Precision double serrated edge

The knife with the unique double serrated edge cuts hard crusts just as easily as soft bread or large fruits, like pumpkin. The difference versus traditional serrated edges can be felt immediately.
