Questions about this item
Do I need a specific cutting surface to use the high-carbon steel blade properly?
The blade is high-carbon steel and works on standard cutting boards; avoid glass or stone surfaces to keep the edge from dulling quickly.
Will the Santoprene handle feel different from the wooden handles on my older knives?
Yes, the black Santoprene handle is a synthetic rubber composite that resists moisture and stays grippy when wet, unlike traditional wood.
How can I confirm the knife meets the NSF certification shown in the specs?
Look for the NSF mark moulded onto the handle or blade; it indicates the knife passed commercial sanitation and material safety testing.
