Boker Cottage-Craft 11cm Large Office Knife | Plum Wood / Satin

Since the 14th century, the so-called Kotten- farm cottage - have shaped the history of Solingen, the city of blades. The massive grinding stones were driven by pure water power and the world-famous blades were sharpened by hand. The chef's knife series Boker Cottage-Craft impressively continues the heritage of this traditional craftsmanship and convinces with a carefully chosen choice of classic materials. Particularly noteworthy is the use of the non-stainless carbon steel C75, which forms the typical blue-grey patina after only a short period of use. The domestic plum wood used for the handle scales is hard, dense and fine-pored, shows an even structure and a striking colour spectrum. Following the centuries-old tradition of knife manufacturing in Solingen, the handle scales are mounted on the continuous tang of the blade with solid brass rivets.

The large paring is a very handy mix of a chef's knife and a paring knife. The most common use of the all-purpose knife in the kitchen is for processing fruit and vegetables, which can be peeled and cut with it. But also smaller pieces of fish and meat can be cut easily with it. As the knife, which is ground on both sides, is used very often, it should not be missing in any kitchen.

Please note - as a natural material, there may be shade and pattern variations in the timber handles. Each one is unique. Care of wooden items- Do not place in dishwasher. Hand wash and dry promptly, and keep oiled with a food grade oil or board cream.

NOTE: Carbon steel blades are the easiest to sharpen and have good edge retention but need a little more care. Keep clean, dry and lightly oiled to prevent any surface rust, a patina will develop over time which will make them more corrosion resistant.
