What Is a Chef's Knife Used for?

Our Chef’s Knife is perfect for kitchen tasks like dicing, mincing, boning, precision cuts and plenty more. This is a great knife for just about anything home cooks and professional chefs alike are interested in making.

What Material Is a Chef's Knife Made of?

Our Chef Knife is made from X50CrMoV15 Stainless Steel, which helps make ours high quality and maintain a super sharp edge that does not need to be sharpened as often. Lower quality knives you might find at Henkels, Wusthof classic, or shun, feature high carbon, which will have you pulling out your whetstone more often.

What is Asymmetrical Bevel Tech?

Asymmetrical Bevel Tech, or ABT™, is a revolutionary edge geometry that sharpens the knife at a 14° angle on one side and a 4° polished angle on the other. Unlike traditional double-bevel blades, this asymmetrical profile reduces resistance as you cut, allowing the blade to glide through food with twice the sharpness and dramatically smoother, more controlled cuts. And even though the blade is asymmetrical, it's been carefully designed to feel intuitive for both right- and left-handed chefs.

Fully forged in France’s historic knife making region, the Chef Knife is perfectly balanced and holds a sharp edge.

Made in France
Full Tang for Perfect Balance
Fully Forged for Durability
Slip-Resistant Handle
Lifetime Warranty

To craft the world’s best Chef Knife, we began at the birthplace of the world’s first Chef Knife: Thiers, France. Forged by a 5th generation bladesmith and hardened with nitrogen, this Knife combines the utilitarianism of German blades with the precision of Japanese knives.

Instead of being cheaply welded together, all of our Knives are full tang and fully forged, meaning they are crafted from a single rod of stainless steel that extends from tip to handle—resulting in sharper, perfectly balanced blades.

The closest thing to an all-purpose blade, the Chef Knife features a curved blade optimized for the rocking method, a pointed tip for precise cuts, and a hand-finished, slip-resistant polymer handle. Discover why the Chef Knife is an integral part of prep in both restaurant and home kitchens.
