Classica Chef's Knife 18 cm | Black

High-Volume Preparation: The ICEL Classica Professional Chef’s Knife

The 18 cm chef's knife is often considered the most versatile "standard" in the kitchen, offering the perfect equilibrium between length and agility. This ICEL Classica instrument is engineered to handle a wide range of tasks, from dicing firm vegetables to portioning proteins. Its broad blade profile provides ample knuckle clearance and a smooth rocking motion, allowing for efficient board work and rapid ingredient processing without sacrificing the precision required for finer tasks.

Engineered for Daily Endurance and Secure Handling

The technical utility of this tool is driven by its 18 cm blade, forged from high-performance X50CrMoV15 high-carbon stainless steel and tempered to 56 HRC. This metallurgical composition ensures the edge remains sharp through long shifts while providing the necessary structural strength to resist edge deformation.

The blade is integrated into a high-density black polypropylene handle, featuring a textured surface to provide a secure, non-slip grip even when hands are wet or oily. Chemically bonded to the tang for a seamless, hygienic transition, this knife meets strict NSF standards and is built to withstand the rigorous cleaning and sterilization protocols of a professional culinary environment.
