This knife is like good coffee: strong, energizing, and you wake up when you hold it. Forged from German steel, it slices onions, meat, and even disappointment from failed dinners. The 8-inch finely honed blade works like a laser, and the ergonomic handle doesn’t slip even in a wet hand. It fears no kitchen — from romantic dinners to 40 servings for a feast. Hand wash only, no dishwashers — yes, it’s worth it.
