A truly excellent knife featuring everything that's great about German knives (easy to maintain, excellent construction quality and materials, good value), plus some small innovations to improve on the classic chef's knife design:

Precision forged from a single blank of steel with full tang. Features the popular new blade style without full bolster, for ease of sharpening, full-blade length performance, and lighter weight. The handle is super-comfortable and made of the same excellent material that the Classic line is made of so it's comfortable and offers good grip even when wet, and it's polished so it looks beautiful and natural at the same time. The metal cap and overall shape also lends true elegance to the shape, and it's incredibly comfortable, no matter what kind of grip you prefer to use (pro-style "pinch grip" or standard grip on the handle). German forged steel quality for a lifetime of use.
