Unmistakable features. The blade is attached to the handle with a full or half bolster. It protects the fingers, and the balance makes fast and precise work easier. The thin support structure reduces the weight of the knife and allows energy-saving work. The blade is forged from high-carbon stainless steel. This robust steel guarantees a long service life and precise cutting. Extending the blade into the handle ensures the knife's reliable stability and balance as a counterweight to the blade.
