Utility knives (or universal knives) are, as the name suggests, all-rounders. They combine the functions of chef's and paring knives and are suitable for peeling, cleaning, or cutting fruits and vegetables. Because they are generally small and handy, utility knives are perfect for small tasks. For avid cooks, they are a practical addition to specialized tools. This little helper should not be missing in any kitchen. With its elegant design, special material properties, and a technically complex manufacturing process, the knife series belongs to the absolute luxury class. The high-gloss polished blades feature an artistically designed, radiating pattern of Damascus layers. This appearance, combined with the gray-black marbled handle, creates an impressive overall look. The blades of the series are made from two different types of steel, which are bonded to form a 72-layer Damascus steel. The elaborate layering of the two types of steel results in a blade with exceptionally durable cutting performance. The series was awarded the German Design Award 2017 Special Mention.
