With this knife a new world standard was set. For the very first time an expensive
high-end steel is used in serial production of advanced chefs knives. The benefit
of using a special steel is that the blade can be made thinner, lighter and more
rigid and this makes your kitchen work easier and more fun. The new laminateVG10
special steel will make the edge last much longer and this is of course a particular
advantage for professionals.
They have paid extra attention
to the shape of the handle - the grip must fill the hand without being clumsy
while offering a shape that you ensures a safety when working with the knife.
they achieve this by making the handle of tacky Thermorun rubber - the better
the grip is, the less fatiguing for your hands. On top of that, the handle is
easy to keep clean as it has no grooves or dents. The hygienic aspect is an
important detail for those who work with food in restaurants and eateries -
not the least for their guests.
The tang runs through the
handle at almost full width, which gives both stability and rigidity for the
knife. The black Teflon coating protects the blade from corrosion and mechanical
damage - they have run marathon tests on the coating in a dishwasher with no
visible defects upon the surface.
Fallkniven regards
the K1 and K2 knives as the most advanced chef´s knives in the world and
Fallkniven invites you to treat yourself to this everyday luxury. However, please
note that none of these knives are adapted for cutting frozen food, nor chopping
bones, this will inevitably result in a broken or bent edge. For such heavy
tasks Fallkniven advises you to use a saw or a cleaver. And finally, the best
working base is a cutting board made of wood - they are also more hygienic than
plastic.
The K1 is a modern, ergonomically
designed kitchen knife for the professional chef. The broad blade offers a stiffness
and rigidity which make the knife perfect for delicate tasks. Also, the shape
of the edge allows it to cut in both directions.
