Professional Chef’s Knife is a everyday all-rounder for chopping herbs, dicing vegetables and portioning boneless meat. The Professional line uses chrome-molybdenum-vanadium stainless steel with full-tang, triple-riveted construction; exact hardness and origin should be verified against the supplier record. The 20 cm format is the benchmark all-round size: enough blade for serious prep without becoming cumbersome. It suits cooks who prefer the familiar security of a Western handle and a more planted feel over the ultra-light Japanese alternatives.

Why we chose it

This is here to compete for the “one serious knife” purchase, so it needed a distinct feel and a convincing everyday reason to choose it over the other all-rounders. The Professional line uses chrome-molybdenum-vanadium stainless steel with full-tang, triple-riveted construction; exact hardness and origin should be verified by SKU. The 20 cm format is the benchmark all-round size: enough blade for serious prep without becoming cumbersome.

Who it's best for

Buy it if you want a everyday all-rounder mainly for chopping herbs, dicing vegetables and portioning boneless meat; you naturally use rocking and draw cuts; you want traditional full-tang construction at an accessible price. This recommendation applies specifically to Professional Chef’s Knife. In this range, Professional Chef’s Knife is the version to choose if that combination sounds right. (20cm version: SABST2008)
