WMF Ultimate Black Chinese Chef's Knife

The Asian knife features a straight and sturdy blade and can be used for everything: cutting, chopping, and mincing, for meat, vegetables, and herbs. The wide blade is excellent for transporting chopped ingredients into a bowl, pan, or pot. Cutting technique: This chef's knife has the shape of an axe, with a slightly rounded tip. For chopping herbs, for example, you hold the handle with one hand and the blade with the other at the front. This allows for small, quick chopping motions to be executed easily. It is versatile, but for splitting bones, it is better to use specialized cleavers. With the Ultimate Black knife series, WMF offers a true innovation with superior cutting performance. Manufactured to the highest quality standards in Hayingen, Germany, the knives feature hand-forged blades with the exclusive WMF Diamond Cut, allowing for a lifetime of use without the need for sharpening. Equipped with effective finger protection due to the special bolster design, the optimally balanced knives fit perfectly in the hand during everyday cutting tasks. For typical household use, following the instructions and the European standardized testing procedure for edge retention is recommended.
