8” Pro Series Chef Knife
by Ergo Chef
www.ergochef.com
Ergo Chef knives are forged from one piece of high-carbon
German steel (type X50CrMoV15), so there’s no chance
they’ll snap in two. They’re precision heat-treated for long
edge life to a Rockwell hardness of 56-58 RC. The blade
is taper ground with a full radius on the cutting edge. This
creates the ideal rocking motion for smooth and efficient
cuts. And since the blade is not flat, you’ll avoid the extra
strain caused by abrupt stops. The 18-degree blade edge is
tapered to a .020-.025 thick back which then tapers to the
spine of the knife. This .020-.025 thick area reinforces the
strength of the edge for longer life. Ergo Chef’s signature
ergonomically angled handle design keeps the hand and
forearm in a straighter line, so there’s less strain on the
hand, wrist and forearm. Pictured is the Pro Series 8” Chef
Knife. Ergo Chef also offers the popular Guy Fieri Knuckle
Sandwich Series Knives, seen on page 5. MSRP: $92.99
