The Messermeister Oliva Elite 7 Inch Santoku Knife is a versatile chef's knife that can handle all your slicing needs with precision and grace. This Japanese knife is designed with a thin taper for maximum precision when slicing vegetables, fish, and meat. The hollow oval shape of the kullens on either side of the blade minimizes food sticking to the blade while you are cutting ingredients, making your cooking prep experience even more seamless.
The features of this knife are impressive. The German 1.4116 stainless carbon alloy blade resists stains and corrosion, is tough and durable, and holds its edge retention. Not only that, it is easy to re-sharpen to a razor-like edge, ensuring a long-lasting and high-performing knife for your kitchen.
Plus, this knife is one-piece, hot-drop hammer forged, resulting in the strongest blade from heel to tip. The blades are heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 57-58, guaranteeing durability and resilience. The three-step, 15° Elite edge is hand stropped on a cloth wheel, creating the sharpest possible cutting surface on an edged tool.
Experience the perfect balance between the blade and gorgeous olive wood handle in both width and weight, ensuring a well-balanced and easy-to-use knife for any cutting task. With all of these features, the Messermeister 7 Inch Santoku Knife will become your go-to in the kitchen.
