As many of our chefs work in environments where the knife is used very heavily and often abused!!, we wanted to create a blade capable of withstanding these conditions as well as capable of enduring razor-edge sharpness that is easy to maintain. JKC AUS 10 Series is the answer.
Our goal was achieved by utilising a stain resistant High Carbon Steel (AUS 10), sandwiched between 2 layers of soft stainless steel. The hard central core facilitates surgical sharpness, whilst the soft outer layers make the knife consummately easy to resharpen and grind over many years of heavy use. For economy, the laminated steel is pre forged into sheets that are laser cut to the final shape prior to expert tempering, grinding, hand sharpening and finishing. The result is a knife of outstanding quality that is comparable to many at a much higher cost.
The handles are made of natural finished brown Pakkawood attached with 3 rivets to a full tang for comfort and perfect balance.
The edge of this shape is almost flat for the entire length and is the consummate knife for the preparation of vegetables. The wide rectangular blade is ideal for scooping and the best shape for vertical chopping of hard and dense foods like cabbages, celeriac etc.
Function – Vegetable knife. For Slicing, Dicing and Mincing of vegetables.
Normal length – 160mm to 180mm
Tip: A few models have a completely flat edge with no curve so if you need to roll cut as well as vertically chop (to Julienne or Chiffonade herbs) select a model that has a slight curve towards the tip. This is the ‘uber’ knife for vegetables.
