{"product_id":"couteau-de-chef-22-cm-erable","title":"Alba · Chef Knife 8.5\"","description":"\u003cp class=\"cd-intro\"\u003eThe 8.5-inch Alba chef knife is the heaviest in the series at 160 g (5.6 oz): its length handles cabbage, melon or a roast, and its straight spine guides an even cut. It is the knife for big boards and big batches, where the 7-inch chef is quicker. Hammered 7Cr17MoV stainless steel, octagonal light maple handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chef knife (gyuto in Japanese) is the do-it-all kitchen knife: dice onions, chop herbs, slice meat, portion fish. The long, gently curved blade rocks on the board for fast chopping. If you could only own one knife, this would be it. Japanese-style blade, thin and hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlade and Handle\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Alba Chef Knife 8.5\" has a 7Cr17MoV stainless steel blade, hardened to 56-58 HRC, with a hammered finish near the spine and a polished edge sharpened to 15-20° per side. This slightly wider angle gives a sturdy edge that is easy to maintain on a honing rod or whetstone. The octagonal Japanese-style handle is light maple with an amber resin ferrule; its symmetrical shape suits right- and left-handers alike. The maple grain changes from piece to piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShipping and Returns\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDamascus Knife ships free with tracking across the United States: 1 to 3 business days to prepare, then 8 to 14 business days in transit, import duties included.
