Technical specifications and materials
This knife is made of premium tool steel X12MF with a hardness of 61-62 HRC — it is a recognized favorite among fans of reliable, productive chef knives. The blade length of 205 mm with a thickness of 1.4 mm and a width of 28 mm provides an optimal balance between ease of operation and cutting control.
The handle is made of valuable wenge wood and duralumin, a high—strength, lightweight aluminum alloy. This combination gives pleasant tactile sensations, durability and aesthetic appeal. Wenge is famous for its durability and moisture resistance, while duralumin provides additional structural reliability and comfort during long-term operation.
Blade features and functionality
The shape of the blade, the Trailing Point— is typical for professional kitchen knives, sharpened for filigree work: precise cuts, cutting fish, chopping herbs and vegetables, working with boneless meat. The high "lift" of the tip makes it ideal to perform delicate manipulations, and the long working edge makes it easier to cut large ingredients evenly.
Due to the small thickness of the blade, the knife easily enters the product, minimizing resistance. This geometry is ideal for a chef who appreciates ease and speed of work.
Durability and durability
X12MF steel is known for its outstanding wear resistance and durability, which is critical in the kitchen with large volumes of cutting. The hardness of 61-62 HRC ensures that the knife will stay sharp for a long time, even with heavy use. The handle materials are resistant to moisture, do not absorb odors and are easy to clean after work.
The leather sheath ensures safe storage and transportation, protecting the knife from accidental damage and environmental influences.
Maintenance and care
Although X12MF steel is resistant to corrosion, it still requires minimal maintenance: after work, it is recommended to rinse and wipe the knife dry, and avoid prolonged contact with acids and moisture. To maintain sharpness, you need sharpening on high-quality water stones or professional services.
The handle made of wenge and duralumin does not need complicated care — it is enough to wipe it periodically and, if necessary, treat it with mineral oil to maintain the shine of the wood.
Application, advantages and limitations
- Optimal: Professional and home cooking, daily slicing of vegetables, fruits, herbs, boneless meat, fish, delicate milling operations.
- Advantages: Excellent sharpness, ease of cutting, wear resistance, comfort and safety of holding due to the ergonomic handle. Well-thought-out balancing reduces fatigue during prolonged work.
- Restrictions: It is not intended for chopping bones, frozen foods, opening shells and other heavy loads. The wedge geometry and small thickness are not designed for power work — for these tasks it is better to choose knives with a more massive butt.
Recommendation: This knife will become an indispensable tool for professional chefs and true connoisseurs of kitchen traditions. Its qualities are maximized in modern and traditional cuisine, where cleanliness, speed and aesthetics of serving are important. It is not suitable for hunting, hiking or field work.
