Product detailed description

Chef's knife Chef/Kiritsuke Suncraft Elegance®

This knife is ideal for versatile use. Thanks to the fact that the spine of the knife and the blade taper to a point, it has the ideal shape for every kind of slicing. It is suitable for cutting meat, slicing fish, cleaning meat and fish, fruits and vegetables. The higher tip also allows you to cradle herbs or nuts.

A collection of knives made from premium materials that contribute to their long life. The handle of the knife changes naturally over time, while the brass guard acquires a unique patina. You can follow these transformations for years and the knife will become your tool of choice.
Knives from the Suncraft Elegancia collection represent the perfect combination of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern materials. The blades are made of premium SG2 stainless steel, which is known for its extreme sharpness, long life and high corrosion resistance. The high blade and gently curved handle increase the space under the handle. Even a man with a large hand can comfortably grip the handle without touching the cutting board with his fingers. The handle fits perfectly in the hand and provides a firm, comfortable grip for maximum control when slicing. It is symmetrically shaped, which means that the knife is suitable for both right and left-handed users. The brass bolster acquires a patina over time and looks more elegant, shabby and antique. So over the years, the knife will become your own and your favourite just like an old friend. The knives are made by skilled craftsmen in the city of Seki, Japan, which is now world famous for knife making.

Rules for working with a knife Never wash the knife in the dishwasher. To maintain sharpness, hand wash and dry the knife immediately. Do not use the knife as a crowbar and avoid bending it. Do not use the knife as a screwdriver or as a substitute for other tools. Protect the knife from falling or bumping.

Sharpening a kitchen knife

We recommend the use of diamond and water grinding stones for the knife edge. If you are not 100% sure of your skills and abilities, please contact us. We will sharpen your knives individually according to your wishes. We also regularly organize knife sharpening courses. Alternatively, look for a professional grinder in your area. Damage that could result from unprofessional grinding is irreversible.

Choose the right grinding tools

Grinding stone (whetstone) - the best choice for sharpening knives made of 1.4116 steel. Use a stone with a grit of around 1000 grit for basic grinding and around 3000-6000 grit for finer finishing and final sharpening.
Grinding rod (sharpener) - to maintain sharpness between grinds, you can use a sharpening rod to straighten the blade without removing material.
Stretching grinder - a great helper for quick and easy maintenance of common kitchen knives. Although not as precise as grinding on a grindstone, its advantages are speed, simplicity and convenience. For most home users, this is an excellent option for keeping knives sharp without the need for more complicated sharpening.

Cleaning a kitchen knife: every knife deserves care. Particles attached to the blade surface from aggressive substances can begin to corrode and form rust-like stains on the blade surface. However, it does not rust the blade, but the particles attached to the blade. It is better to take care of your knife and wash and oil it after use.
