The Messermeister Oliva Elite 6 Inch Chef Knife is an essential tool for all your cutting needs in the kitchen. With its hand forged Stealth blade and gorgeous Italian olive wood handle, this knife is 25% thinner and 10% lighter than traditional chef knives, making it easy to handle. Its razor sharp edge allows you to effortlessly chop, slice, dice, and mince without feeling fatigued.
The Oliva Elite chef's knife is handcrafted with the highest precision in Solingen, Germany, the historic cutlery capital of the world. Its German 1.4116 stainless carbon alloy blade resists stains and corrosion. This tough and durable blade retains its sharpness and can be effortlessly honed to achieve a razor-sharp edge.
The Messermeister Oliva Elite knife line is not only strong but also one-piece, hot-drop hammer forged, which produces the strongest blade from heel to tip. The blades are then heat-treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell hardness of 57-58, ensuring long-lasting durability.
The blade's three-step, 15° Elite edge is hand-stropped on a cloth wheel, creating the sharpest possible cutting surface. In addition, because the heel doesn't have a bolster, it uses the entire blade from heel to tip, simplifying all cutting, sharpening, and honing tasks.
