Tourné knife 7 cm – precise control for decorative culinary artistry
The tourné knife from the Icel Maître series is a specialist tool with a 7 cm curved blade designed for precise, decorative cuts. Made from forged stainless steel with a high carbon content, ensuring long-lasting sharpness and durability. The knife has an ergonomic plastic handle that provides excellent control for fine, detailed work.
Ideal for professional chefs and food enthusiasts who wish to create beautiful, uniform shapes on potatoes, root vegetables, and other vegetables for elegant plating.
Specially designed for precision cutting
The curved 7 cm blade is carefully crafted to give optimal control when tournéing ingredients. The blade's shape makes it possible to create uniform facets and attractive geometric patterns by turning the knife around the ingredient. With a hardness of 56 HRC, the edge stays sharp for a long time, even with intensive use in a busy kitchen. The lightweight design of just 50 grams reduces wrist fatigue during extended periods of work.
A versatile tool for finer kitchen work
Beyond tournéing, this knife is excellent for removing blemishes from fruit and vegetables, trimming flower stems, or carrying out other detailed cutting tasks where precision is essential. The compact size makes it ideal for smaller, intricate tasks where a larger knife would be impractical. The solid plastic handle provides a secure grip even with wet hands.
Proper maintenance extends the knife's lifespan
To maintain the tourné knife's optimum performance, it should always be washed by hand and dried thoroughly after use. The knife is not dishwasher safe, as this can negatively affect both sharpness and durability. Regular sharpening ensures the knife remains an effective tool in your kitchen year after year. The forged high-carbon steel makes the knife particularly well suited to professional sharpening.
