Tournier knife with precision for decorative cuts
The F. Dick Premier Plus Tournier Knife with a 7 cm blade is specially designed to create decorative shapes in vegetables, fruits, and potatoes. Its distinctive curved blade made of X50CrMoV15 stainless steel allows you to work with high precision, while the ergonomic plastic handle ensures a secure grip during use.
Ideal for professional chefs and food enthusiasts looking to add a visual element to their presentations through tournéing – the technique of shaping ingredients by continuously turning the knife around the item.
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 provides the knife with exceptional sharpness that lasts, even with frequent use. The 7 cm blade is perfectly sized to offer the necessary control when working with smaller ingredients, where precision is crucial. The full-tang construction enhances the knife's stability and provides a natural balance that reduces hand fatigue during extended use.
Ergonomic design for safe handling
The black plastic handle is designed with a focus on comfort and safety. The material offers 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 fits comfortably in the hand, giving you full control over every cut. The weight distribution between the blade and handle is carefully calibrated to provide optimal balance during use.
Maintaining your tournier knife
To preserve the knife's quality and sharpness for as long as possible, it should be hand-washed and thoroughly dried 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, it is recommended to have the knife professionally sharpened to maintain the optimal sharpness necessary for precise tournéed cuts.
