Boker Core Professional Chef's Knife Small

'What do Trier, Wiesbaden, Münster and Lüneburg have in common? Beyond their historic centers, well-known landmarks and long traditions as important trading hubs, they are home to outstanding steelware retailers who have earned their reputations through years of wide selection and expert knowledge. We drew on their decades of experience, practical insight into the needs of cooking enthusiasts and our own nearly 150 years as a Solingen knife manufactory to develop the Boker Core series. The result is a knife with dynamic lines, excellent handling and impressive cutting performance, earning the quality rating "recommended by leading retailers."\n\nThe solid blade blank is made from a chromium-molybdenum-vanadium alloy (X50CrMoV15), ideal for premium kitchen knives. It is hand-forged in Solingen, structurally optimized and hardened to 58 HRC. To extend blade life and achieve an even finer edge, the traditional hand grind is then highly polished. The forged bolster provides a secure grip and protects the user in case of a slip. A distinctive feature of the series is the gently rounded spine, which makes the knife comfortable to hold in any position and prevents pressure points on the hand—even when applying strong force for techniques like a rock chop.\n\nThe practical, well-proportioned synthetic handles are highly moisture-resistant and suitable for professional kitchens, where hygiene standards are critical. The Chef\'s Knife is a kitchen essential: slightly wider and longer than a utility knife, it has a slim tip for tasks like slicing onions or small vegetables, sufficient length for carving meat, and the reach to handle large vegetables with ease.'
