Chef's knife, 20 cm, Icel Douro Gourmet

Icel Douro Gourmet chef's knife – sharp precision in the kitchen

The Icel Douro Gourmet chef's knife with a 20 cm blade combines durability and functionality in an ergonomic design. The stainless steel blade with a high chromium alloy (X50CrMoV15) ensures sharpness and precision, while the black micarta handle provides a secure grip. The knife features a full-tang construction for optimal balance and stability during use.

Ideal for professional chefs and food enthusiasts who value precision cutting when preparing meat, fish, vegetables, and herbs.

Professional sharpness and durability

With a hardness of 56 HRC, the Icel Douro Gourmet chef's knife offers the perfect balance between sharpness and wear resistance. The stainless chrome-molybdenum-vanadium steel makes the blade resistant to corrosion and keeps its cutting performance for a long time. The full-tang construction, where the metal continues in full width through the entire handle, gives the knife excellent balance and strength, reducing fatigue during extended use.

Ergonomic comfort for demanding tasks

The ergonomically shaped micarta handle is designed to minimise strain during intensive use. The material is resistant to both moisture and heat, making it ideal for the kitchen environment. At just 170 grams, the knife is light enough for precision work yet heavy enough to provide the necessary force for tougher cutting tasks. The knife's balance and ergonomics reduce the risk of wrist fatigue, even during extended cooking sessions.

Maintenance and care

To preserve the knife's quality and sharpness for as long as possible, it should be washed by hand and dried thoroughly after use. The knife is not dishwasher safe, as this can affect both sharpness and the durability of the handle. Regular maintenance with a honing steel extends the time between sharpenings. For professional sharpening, H.W. Larsen offers a specialist service with over 85 years of experience.

With the Icel Douro Gourmet chef's knife you get:

• High cutting precision with the sharp 20 cm stainless steel blade
• Ergonomic comfort with the moisture-resistant micarta handle
• Professional quality with full-tang construction for optimal balance

Frequently asked questions

How do I maintain my Icel Douro Gourmet chef's knife?
Wash the knife by hand with mild soap, dry it thoroughly after use, and store it safely. Avoid the dishwasher and use a honing steel regularly to maintain sharpness.

What does full-tang construction mean?
Full-tang means that the knife blade continues in full width through the entire handle, giving the knife better balance, strength, and durability compared to knives where the blade only extends partially into the handle.
