The 8" Hollow Edge Chef's Knife is also known as the cook's knife. This all-round knife features a broad, sturdy blade for skinning vegetables, chopping meats and mincing herbs. The hollows prevent foods from sticking and allows for extra thin cutting. TWIN Cuisine is the first premium-quality forged knife to combine an ergonomic molded handle with the superior weight and balance of a full metal tang. A union of classic design and modern manufacturing technology, German-made TWIN Cuisine cutlery features high-carbon no-stain steel blades, ice-hardened for superior strength and sharpness. Elegantly curved handles are smooth and seamless with a full rat-tail tang for increased stability and lasting durability.

Care Instructions
Henckels knives are dishwasher-safe but hand-washing is recommended. In the dishwasher, your Henckels knife may bang against other cutlery or pots and pans and knick the blade.
Wipe the knife clean with a wet cloth and dishwashing detergent. Dry immediately. Dry from the back of the knife to the blade tip.
No metal is completely stain-free. To prevent slight tarnishing, be sure to remove acidic foods (lemon, mustard, ketchup, etc.) from the blade after use. If blade should show some signs of staining, clean with a non-abrasive metal polish.
To prevent irreparable blade damage, it is best to store your knife in a knife block or in-drawer knife tray.
