• Full bolster – The full finger guard reliably protects the fingers during everyday cooking, and the balance makes work quick and precise.
• Full tang – The blade runs through the handle, providing reliable stability for the knife. It also acts as a counterweight, balancing the blade.
• Hand guard – The ergonomic knife handle fits well in the hand, and the curved end of the handle prevents slipping. The sturdy handle panels are fixed with stainless steel rivets.
• Hollow-ground blade – During cutting, small air pockets form in the blade's recesses. The positive effect is that thin or soft foods are easier to remove from the blade during use and do not stick to it.
• Precision double-serrated edge – The bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts hard crust as easily as soft bread, or large fruit such as pumpkin. The difference compared with a traditional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
