Description

This western chef knife has a 7-inch 440C blade covered in a detailed etched pattern, a polished steel bolster and an olive wood handle with swirling light-and-dark grain. At 12 inches overall, it's a compact size that's easy to control on a home cutting board.

The blade has the familiar western profile: a pointed tip, a smooth curve through the front half for rocking cuts, and a straighter section toward the heel for slicing and push cuts. Use it to mince parsley, dice onions, slice chicken thighs or halve a squash. The bolster keeps your fingers back from the edge when you choke up into a pinch grip.

440C makes this a stainless steel chef's knife that resists staining from tomatoes and citrus. Hand wash and dry it instead of putting it in the dishwasher, which is hard on both the etching and the wood. As a wood handle chef knife, its olive wood handle needs a little mineral oil now and then to keep it from drying out. The handle is fixed with two pins.
