Premier Plus Chef's Knife - Precision in Every Slice
The F. Dick Premier Plus Gyoto Chef's Knife, 18 cm, combines Japanese precision with German craftsmanship in perfect harmony. Made from high-quality X50CrMoV15 steel, this knife ensures durability and sharpness, while the ergonomic synthetic handle provides a secure grip even during the most demanding kitchen tasks.
It's ideal for professional kitchens and culinary enthusiasts who appreciate precision in their cutting work—from fine vegetable slicing to precise meat carving.
German quality steel with Japanese inspiration
This chef's knife represents the best of both worlds. The special X50CrMoV15 steel, crafted from 51 carefully selected elements, gives the knife exceptional properties. The steel is harder than traditional Western knives with a hardness rating of 58 HRC, meaning the edge stays sharper for longer. At the same time, it retains the robustness that German knives are known for. The extra polished edge ensures clean cuts that preserve the integrity and flavor of the ingredients, which is crucial for professional results.
Thoughtful design for professional use
With a carefully balanced weight of 177 grams distributed across its 31 cm length (with an 18 cm blade), it sits comfortably in hand during use. The black synthetic handle is designed to mimic the natural grip of wood, but without the hygiene challenges. The handle is made without seams, preventing bacteria from entering cracks. This makes the knife a safe choice in both home kitchens and professional environments where hygiene is paramount.
Technical specifications
The chef's knife measures 310 mm in total length with an 180 mm long blade. The blade has a width of 19 mm and a thickness of 4 mm, providing stability during use. Weighing 177 grams, it is light enough for precision work yet heavy enough to deliver necessary power for tougher cutting tasks. The knife is crafted from a single layer of steel and should be hand-washed to maintain its quality as long as possible.
