About our chef’s knives
Few things make food preparation harder than a blunt, poor-quality knife. You do not need to replace your entire collection, however: three essential knives cover many everyday needs. Choose a bread knife for bread, nuts and chocolate, a paring knife for fruit and detailed work, and of course a good chef’s knife. To add a versatile specialist knife, explore our Japanese knives.
Our selection includes the SCANPAN Classic knife range, made from fully forged German steel. The range combines clean design and high functionality with an ergonomic handle.
Classic chef’s knives offer excellent quality at an accessible price. Their tapered cutting edge delivers outstanding cutting performance, even for demanding tasks.
Our chef’s knives are a popular choice. The curved blade makes finely slicing vegetables fast and easy when used with the right technique.
Here are a few tips for getting the most from your chef’s knife:
- For better control, pinch the blade gently between your thumb and index finger close to the handle
- Use the curved blade in a controlled rocking motion
- Keep the tip near the chopping board while moving the handle
- Hold the ingredient securely with your other hand
- Curl your fingertips safely away from the blade
Once you master this technique, the balanced weight of a quality chef’s knife becomes a clear advantage over many other kitchen knives.
