• 180 mm blade – the ideal balance between control and performance
• Ergonomic, non-slip handle – comfort even during prolonged use

• Resistant to heat, moisture, disinfection, and mechanical stress
• 🔴 Possible drawbacks:
• The plastic handle may not appeal aesthetically to those who prefer wood or composite
• The medium blade hardness requires more frequent touch-ups under intensive use
• For some chefs, the 180 mm blade may be too short for large portions or chopping higher volumes
• 🛠️ Care and sharpening:
• Dishwasher safe, but hand washing and drying are recommended to preserve sharpness
• For touch-up sharpening, we recommend the Vulkánus Classic G2 or Vulkánus folding sharpener
