Chef's Knife Premier Plus - precision in every cut
The F. Dick Premier Plus Chef's Knife Gyuto 18 cm combines Japanese precision with German craftsmanship in a perfect balance. The knife is made from high-quality X50CrMoV15 steel, ensuring durability and sharpness, whilst the ergonomic synthetic handle provides a secure grip even during the most demanding kitchen tasks.
Ideal for professional kitchens and food enthusiasts who value precision in cutting work – from fine vegetable cuts to accurate meat carving.
German quality steel with Japanese inspiration
This chef's knife represents the best of two worlds. The special X50CrMoV15 steel with 51 carefully selected elements gives the knife outstanding properties. The steel is harder than traditional Western knives at 58 HRC, meaning the edge stays sharp for longer. At the same time, it retains the robustness that German knives are renowned for. The extra-polished edge ensures clean cuts that preserve the integrity and flavour of ingredients, which is essential for a professional result.
Thoughtfully designed for professional use
With a carefully balanced weight of 177 grams distributed over the knife's 31 cm length (of which the blade accounts for 18 cm), it sits stably in the 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 joints, preventing bacteria from finding their way into crevices. This makes the knife a safe choice in both the home kitchen and professional environments where hygiene is paramount.
Technical specifications
The chef's knife measures 310 mm in total length with a 180 mm blade. The blade has a width of 19 mm and a thickness of 4 mm, providing stability during use. At 177 grams, it is light enough for precision work, yet heavy enough to provide the necessary force for tougher cutting tasks. The knife is made from a single layer of steel and should be hand washed to preserve its qualities for as long as possible.
