Key Features:

SIGMAFORGE Single-Piece Construction: Blade is forged from a single piece of Special Formula High-Carbon NO STAIN stainless steel, delivering superior strength, balance, and edge retention across the full blade length.
FRIODUR Ice-Hardened Blade: Proprietary ice-hardening process yields a harder, more resilient blade that resists corrosion and maintains a razor-sharp edge through demanding, high-volume use.
Ergonomic Curved Bolster for Pinch Grip: The uniquely curved bolster is engineered to support the professional pinch grip (thumb and index finger on the blade), promoting safe, precise control and reducing hand fatigue during extended prep work.
Dual-Purpose Blade Geometry: The broader curve at the front of the blade facilitates the rocking motion of Western-style cutting, while the straight spine supports the push-down chopping motion common in Asian technique, making this knife highly versatile in a professional kitchen.
Full-Length Usable and Sharpenable Edge: The blade profile allows the entire cutting edge, from bolster to tip, to be used for slicing and re-sharpened, maximizing longevity and consistent performance over time.
Long, Slender Slicer Blade: The 7-5/8" blade with a 0.06" thickness and plain edge is purpose-built for clean, uniform slices through roasts, ham, poultry, fish, and other proteins with minimal resistance.
Classic 3-Rivet Handle: ABS plastic handle features a triple-rivet design for a secure, durable attachment and a well-balanced feel familiar to professional culinary staff.
Designed in Italy, Made in Germany: Designed by renowned industrial designer Matteo Thun and manufactured in Germany by ZWILLING J.A. Henckels, combining premium craftsmanship with functional, professional-grade design.
