Calphalon Precision Series - 8 inch Chef's Knife

Engineered to exacting standards, Calphalon Precision Series Cutlery stays sharp over 20% longer than Calphalon Contemporary cutlery. Blades are precisely tapered for optimal edge retention and deliver exceptional performance when chopping, slicing, mincing and more. Knives are fully forged from high-carbon, no-stain German steel and feature a full tang for better balance and strength and unique, bar-riveted handles. Each knife is also conveniently labeled on the end of the handle for easy identification in the block. The 8-in. Chef's Knife is the most indispensable of all the knives. The blade's edge is gently curved, from tip to heel to allow for a gentle, rocking and gliding motion as you cut. The long length and heavy weight of the blade helps you work more efficiently, with less effort.
