Tourné Knife, F. Dick Premier Plus

Tourné Knife for Precision Decorative Cuts

The F. Dick Premier Plus tourné knife with a 7 cm blade is specially designed to create decorative shapes in vegetables, fruits and potatoes. The distinctive curved blade in X50CrMoV15 stainless steel allows you to work with high precision, whilst the ergonomic synthetic handle ensures a secure grip throughout.

Ideal for professional chefs and food enthusiasts who wish to add a visual element to their dishes through tournéing – the technique of shaping ingredients by continually turning the knife around the product.

Sharpness and Durability at the Forefront

The knife's X50CrMoV15 steel alloy with a hardness of 58 HRC combines excellent cutting properties with long-lasting durability. This composition gives the knife exceptional sharpness that is maintained even with frequent use. The 7 cm blade is perfectly sized to provide the control needed when working with smaller ingredients where precision is essential. The fully forged construction increases the knife's stability and provides a natural balance that reduces hand fatigue during extended use.

Ergonomic Design for Safe Handling

The black synthetic handle is designed with a focus on comfort and safety. The material provides a secure grip, even with wet hands, and is more hygienic than traditional wooden handles as it does not absorb moisture or bacteria. With its compact dimensions (170x13x23 mm) and a weight of just 59 grams, the knife sits comfortably in the hand and gives you complete control over each cut. The weight distribution between blade and handle is carefully calibrated to provide optimal balance during work.

Caring for Your Tourné Knife

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 negatively affect both the blade's sharpness and the handle's durability. With regular use, professional sharpening is recommended to maintain the optimal edge required for precise tournéed cuts.

With the F. Dick Premier Plus tourné knife you get:

• A specially designed 7 cm blade in durable X50CrMoV15 steel
• An ergonomic synthetic handle ensuring hygiene and a good grip
• Perfect balance and weight (59 grams) for precision work
