About J.A. Henckels International Classic 8-Inch Hollow

Amazon.com An excellent value, this eight-inch hollow-edge chef's knife from Henckels's International line offers above-average quality for the home chef at a moderate price. Knives from the Classic series are traditionally styled with triple-riveted black polypropylene handles, a visible full tang, and full bolster for optimum strength and balance. The blades are forged of high-carbon, no-stain steel, and are hand-honed for precision slicing, chopping, and carving. The Japanese-style chef's knife makes a great gift for the aficionado of Asian cooking. Creating air pockets and reducing friction, the hollow edge excels at producing super thin slices of vegetables or sashimi that fall neatly away from the blade. While Classic knives are technically dishwasher-safe, Henckels recommends that its cutlery be hand-washed and dried immediately after use. Made in Spain, the knife is covered by a lifetime warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri Product Description J.A. Henckels International Classic 8" Hollow Edge Chef gives you the benefits of a chef's knife plus the added feature of the hollow edge. The hollow edge keeps food from sticking to the blade of the knife while chopping, dicing and slicing.
