Chroma 9.5" large chef's knife, model P01, designed by F.A. Porsche
F.A. Porsche design, by Chroma
These knives made by Croma are the perfect combination of modern ergonomic design and first class materials and finishing.
The blades are made of high quality Japanese 301 steel and - just like e.g. Global knives - they are thin and sharpened using a small angle. Like all Japanese knives the Porsche design knives are sharpened all the way to the end of the blade. This makes it easy to sharpen the knives on a sharpening stone.
The handles designed by F.A. Porsche are made from 18/10 CrNi steel. The metal pearl clearly demarcates the end of the handle for better control when cutting.
Sharpening a Japanese knife
Japanese knives are sharpened using a much smaller angle than for instance European knives and are sometimes sharpened asymmetrical. Therefore these knives should never been sharpened on a sharpening device design for sharpening using a standard angle. Also we do not recommend sharpening these knives on a regular sharpening steel.
The ways to sharpen Japanese knives are:
- On a fine sharpening stone
- Using a ceramic or diamond coated sharpening steel.
- Using a water sharpener designed for Japanese knives
Use of a chef's knife
The chef's knife - also known as cook's knife - is the most essential of all knives used in the kitchen. It is used for chopping, dicing and mincing of all kind of food.
Chef's knives are available with blade lengths from 6 to 14". An 8" chef's knife is the most used chef's knife by home users; you will find it in almost any starter set. Professional users mostly use a 9 or 10" chef's knife or even larger. The larger size makes it more productive but you also need more experience to handle it (and a bigger cutting board).
The most common cutting techniques are chopping, dicing and mincing (see pictures below).
Chopping and dicing are techniques for making thin slices of e.g. cucumber or mushrooms. The index finger of the left hand is used to guide the knife while the other fingers hold the food. The mincing technique is mostly used to mince fresh herbs like parsley.
