As the name suggests, a Chinese chefs knife is designed for preparing Asian food. Ultimately, however, it is capable of so much more. For due to its versatility and good handling characteristics, more and more professional and amateur chefs around the world are swearing by this exotic model. Although shaped like an axe, the Chinese chefs knife is not used to chop firm foods. As its blade is too thin to shatter bones, it is designed for precision dicing fruit and vegetables and chopping herbs. Unlike its European counterpart, the blade of the Chinese chefs knife is extremely wide. WMF offers a wide range of Chinese chefs knives, allowing you to expand your knife collection individually with such prime candidates. As the name suggests, the Chefs Edition was designed for professional chefs and for all those looking for maximum cutting precision. The idea behind the collection came about after a workshop on handling and cutting techniques. Professional chefs hold wide knives between their thumb and index finger just in front of the bolster i.e. precisely where you would find a sharp edge on standard knives. This realisation led to the development of a knife with a smooth transition between the blade and the bolster as well as on the spine. As there are no sharp edges, the knives in the Chefs Edition fit perfectly in the hand and effortlessly cut through even the thickest pieces of meat and the crunchiest of vegetables. Thanks to the seamless transition between the blades and the stainless steel handles, the models are particularly easy-care and hygienic. The series includes a larding knife, an all-purpose knife, a chefs knife, a carving knife and a bread knife as well as a Chinese chefs knife. All blades are Performance Cut, guaranteeing outstanding, long-lasting sharpness. Besides tactile and functional qualities, the Chefs Edition also boasts a modern design.
