Designed by legendary custom knife maker Ken Onion, this serrated utility knife makes quick work of soft fruits, tough vegetables skins, meats and hard-crusted breads. The signature Ken Onion ergonomic handle design features a curved bolster that nestles perfectly in the hand to ensure a comfortable firm grip for both left- and right-hand chefs. The knife is also "zero balanced" at the center for optimum control. Perfect for slicing vegetables, meats and sandwiches, the slightly elevated PakkaWood handle allows for full contact between the knife and the cutting surface while protecting the cook's knuckles. The VG-10 steel core blade with 16 outer layers of stainless steel is stain- and rust-resistant with a razor-sharp beveled edge for superior cutting performance every time.
