Boker Core 130891SET Professional 3pc Chef's Kitchen Knife Set with Tea Towel What do Trier, Wiesbaden, Münster and Lüneburg have in common? Apart from historic city centres, famous landmarks and a long standing tradition as important trade cities, they share another important aspect: These cities are the homes of excellent steelware retailers, who have built their outstanding reputation over many years by means of their extensive selection and expertise. Boker has harnessed their decades of experience and finely honed sense for the requirements of cooking and kitchen enthusiasts in the product development of the Boker Core series, combined with our almost 150 years of experience as a Solingen Knife Manufactory. The result is a premium product with dynamic lines, excellent handling and breathtaking cutting capability. The Boker Core Professional 3 Piece Knife Set comprises three knives from the Boker Core Professional series (20cm Chef's Knife, 16cm Small Chef's Knife and 9cm Paring Knife) and Tea Towel in attractive packaging.The knives' solid blade slugs are made from a chromium molybdenum vanadium alloy (X50CrMoV15), perfectly suited for premium kitchen knives, and are hand forged with Solingen craftsmanship, structurally optimised and hardened to 58 HRC. In order to give the blade a longer service life and even finer cut, our traditional hand grind is then highly polished. The forged bolster ensures a secure and protective grip. The Core Series' knives feature a gently rounded spine, making the knife easy and comfortable to handle in any position, even if strong pressure is applied to the spine, while executing a rock chop, for instance. The practical and perfectly proportioned handles of synthetic round out the cohesive and minimalist look. The synthetic is highly moisture resistant, hygienic and well suited for professional restaurant conditions. A superb knife for a lifetime of culinary art, with a Lifetime Guarantee on materials and workmanship.
