It bridges the gap between the power of a Chef’s knife and the detail of a Paring knife. It is nimble enough for trimming silver skin from meat, yet long enough to slice citrus fruit, cheese, or tomatoes without crushing them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThe Steel: 3-Layer San Mai\u003c\/b\u003e Just like its bigger brother, this blade uses a core of \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"83\"\u003eJapanese AUS-10 High Carbon Steel (60 HRC)\u003c\/b\u003e. This hard core is clad in two layers of softer stainless steel, giving you razor-sharp performance with added resilience. The hammered finish isn’t just for looks though, it helps prevent slices of cucumber or potato from sticking to the blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThe Handle: Italian Olive Wood\u003c\/b\u003e Balanced for \"in-hand\" work or board work. The natural Olive Wood handle feels warm to the touch and offers a secure grip, whether you are peeling over the sink or chopping on the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThe Norvic Difference: Hand Finished in Norfolk\u003c\/b\u003e A utility knife needs to be laser sharp to cut soft skins (like tomatoes) without squashing them. That is why we finish this blade in house. We refine the factory edge on our water cooled Tormek system, hone it, and polish it with \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"279\"\u003e1 micron diamond suspension\u003c\/b\u003e.
