Product description

Description

Thanks to the use of the best forging method and high-quality steel, the Type 301 knives are additionally relatively lightweight, because, as the Chroma brand argues, it is not the weight but the blade of the knife that is responsible for its effectiveness.

Main features:
  • This set of 2 Type 301 knives is from the famous Type 301 collection by the Japanese brand Chroma.
  • The boundary between the blade and handle, which are invisibly joined together, is marked by a metal 'pearl' dipped into the handle (the collection's signature), which ensures the user's safety and helps them to exercise the best possible control over the knife.
  • The 'seamless' joining of blade and handle not only guarantees greater comfort, but also increases hygiene in use.
How to use:
  • The set presented here consists of a Santoku knife with a blade length of 17.8 cm and a peeler knife with a blade length of 7.7 cm, both of which are great for working with vegetables and fruit.
  • The elegant packaging makes this knife a dream gift for any home or professional chef.
Materials used:
  • The knives from the collection designed by F. A. Porsche himself, feature extraordinarily sharp blades made of high-quality, high-carbon Japanese stainless steel 301.
  • The handles are made of 18/10 stainless steel.
Good to know!
  • The handles of the knives, designed by the famous German engineer Ferdinand Alexander "Butzi" P orsche (designer of the Porsche 911 and Porsche 904 cars) in collaboration with chef Jörg Wörther, have a distinctive triangular shape that makes the tools in the collection fit perfectly in the hand.

    Knives are fine. Sharp, though not as hard as it should be spicy Japanese. Balance weight quite, quite, though I do not really understand the location of the "pearls" that only bother. As for the packaging in which they are presented, it leaves much to be desired. If you would like to give someone a gift, you should take into account that when you remove the knife, the box will fall into pieces. It's a minus. Knives not for professional kitchen, but rather for amateurs.

More about this product

The Type 301 knives are knives that are already legends, just as all of Ferdinand Alexander Porsche 's designs have become legends, with the Porsche 911 and Porsche 904 cars at the forefront. But these knives are not just about design.... The Type 301 collection has found its ardent fans in almost every corner of the world thanks to its traditional sharpening method and high-quality Japanese steel. Designed by a brilliant designer and made by the Japanese company Chroma, the tools combine craftsmanship with modern technology, offering their users several key qualities demanded by all cooks. These include exceptional sharpness, an ergonomic, comfortable handle and lightness. Thanks to their innovative design (the collection's designer intended the knives to resemble a shark) and their high level of efficiency and reliability, the Type 301 knives have already found a place in the Vienna Modern Museum and New York's famous MoMA ( Museum of Modern Art). Their quality is also confirmed by the numerous awards and prizes awarded to the collection. However, the best recommendation confirming the exceptional character of knives from the Type 301 collection is probably the fact that famous chefs use them in their everyday work in kitchens of the best restaurants all over the world. Polish enthusiasts of the Chroma brand can boast of owning knives exactly like those used by Robert Makłowicz or Kurt Scheller to cut, chop and shred in their private kitchens. What is more, Kurt Scheller, who has been living and cooking in Poland since 1993, the owner of a school of the culinary arts, the initiator of the foundation and the President of the Polish Association of Chefs and Pastry Chefs, chose Type 301 knives to equip the workstations for the participants of his courses. Among the chefs who use Chroma knives in their kitchens (with Michelin stars!) are also such names as Jean-Paul Bostoen, Serge Vieira, Franck Giovannini or Philippe Mille. Type 301 knives are also used for training at the Alain Ducasse Culinary School. Why? They are the best! Type 301 knives should be sharpened regularly with a ceramic stone (also available from the manufacturer). Sharpening on the stone is an interesting experience and is easy enough to make you feel like a pro the first time!
