Tourné knife 8 cm – precise control for decorative cutting
The tourné knife from the Icel Douro Gourmet series is specially designed for precise shaping of vegetables, potatoes, and fruit. The 8 cm curved blade in stainless steel allows you to create beautiful, uniform shapes with minimal effort. The knife is crafted with a focus on the balance between sharpness, durability, and comfort.
Ideal for professional kitchens and food enthusiasts who want to add a decorative element to their presentations.
Professional quality in your hand
The blade is made from high-quality stainless steel (X50CrMoV15) with a hardness of 56 HRC, ensuring a sharp edge that stays sharp for a long time. The curved blade is specifically shaped to give you full control as you rotate the knife around the ingredient to create uniform facets and decorative shapes. The Micarta handle with stainless steel rivets provides a secure grip even with wet hands, reducing strain during prolonged use.
Precision that elevates the presentation
With this tourné knife, you can transform everyday ingredients into elegant serving elements. The seven facets typically created on potatoes give your presentations a professional look. The small blade size of 8 cm makes the knife ideal for detailed work where precision is essential. The result is uniform, professional cuts that can elevate any dish from everyday food to a gourmet experience.
Maintenance and care
To maintain the knife's optimal sharpness and extend its lifespan, it should be washed by hand and dried thoroughly after use. The knife is not dishwasher-safe, as this can damage both the edge and the handle. When the knife eventually loses its sharpness, H.W. Larsen offers professional sharpening at their grinding workshop with over 85 years of experience.
