Description: Handle:Plum woodRivets:AluminumSurface:stainless / carbonBlade length:blue-glazedBlade:ca. 180 mm / 7 inchesOverall length:ca. 300 mmArt. no. 9745,1855,04 carbon Here we have based the blade on the very efficient form of the Japanese Gyouto chef’s knife, coupled with the balance of our K-grip design. For classic chef’s knife work. Glazing and Blue-glazing“Glazing” is a special process of fine grinding the blade. At different stages, the blade surface is “fine-glazed” and then “blue-glazed”. Since time immemorial, these processes have formed part of the most time-consuming of the traditional Solingen grinding techniques, “blue-glazing” being the finest pro- cessing of the blade surface. Carbon steelIts special properties including hardness, sharpness and long-lasting cutting ability is still hard to find in stainless steels of comparable characteristics. This kind of steel is non-stainless and gains its greyish patina after the first cut. This is the oxidation colour that occurs by being in contact with water or vegetable and fruit juices and their natural acids. This is normal and completlely harmless. A bit of iron releases from the blade while cutting, just microfine particles. It is caused by the micro-corrosion process which leads to a continuous and equal abrasion of the whole blade. The blade becomes thinner and thinner but keeps its original thin grinding degree of 15°. This is the reason for the long-lasting and non-decreasing sharpness (see illustration). The transfer of iron particles could cause the cut foodstuffs to have a slight metallic taste but this is harmless and immediately disappears during cooking. Cherry woodIn Germany cherry wood has always been considered a proven and exquisite wood for high-quality knife handles. Since the introduction of industrial production and plastics, it has to a large extent disappeared. Our cherry wood handles are hand-ground by our masters, freeformed and finely polished. They stand out for their comfortably warm feel, their natural grip and beautiful texture.Due to its particularly dense and hard structure we preferably use cherry wood from northern slopes of german and austrian forests.Our cutting boards are crafted in the same way as our handles - out of solid wood. Combined with our knives they perform a classic and elegant table culture. We do not use any chemical sealers to keep our knife handles and boards natural and food-safe. Do not put this knife into a dishwasher. _gsrx_vers_1436 (GS 9.0.5 (1436))
