Short Chef's Knife

All the features of a classic chef's knife at a smaller size, perfect for small hands and finer control. 

• Chromium German steel 
• Curved blade: An upward curve in the blade is meant for rocking cuts, allowing for efficient chopping, mincing, dicing and slicing.
• Sloped bolster: Precise hold for maximum control
• Ergonomic grip: Comfortable and secure hold, even when wet
• Fully forged construction
• Full tang: Perfectly balanced
• Lifetime Guarantee

Bigger than a paring knife and smaller than a chef's knife, it's the perfect midsize utility knife for any kitchen task. The broad, flat blade is great for crushing garlic or bruising foods like lemongrass.

• 6" Blade (13" with handle)
• 13° double bevel edge
• 56 Rockwell hardness, a standard for everyday knives. Easy to sharpen and less likely to chip.
• 0.51 lbs
• Dishwasher safe

X50CrMoV15 German Steel
X — Stainless Steel: High-grade durable German Steel.
50 — Carbon Content: 0.5% carbon offers good hardness, which results in good edge retention. The blade stays sharper, longer.
Cr — Chromium: Ensures high rust resistance in the finish of the blades.
Mo — Molybdenum: Increases toughness and reduces the likelihood of chipping.
V — Vanadium: Improves grain structure and durability to reduce wear.
15 — Chromium Content: 15% chromium increases the resistance to oxidation and corrosion and allows the classification of ‘stainless steel'

• Wash your knives before first use.
• Use the back or topside when scraping food off your cutting board. Using the sharp side will dull your blade.
• To keep knives sharp, hand-washing is recommended. All Kilne knives are dishwasher safe.
• Use a wood or plastic cutting board. Cutting onto metal, glass or stone surfaces can dull or damage knives.
• Cutting frozen foods can also damage your knives.
• Store knives in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to keep them sharp and protected. Keeping knives loose in drawers can cause premature wear and tear.
• Although Kilne knives are designed to stay sharper longer, we still recommend you sharpen or hone them often. See FAQ for more details.
