Description
A thin blade flexes when you lean on it, and a flexing blade wanders off the line you meant to cut.
This wide chef knife has a 2.3 mm spine, enough steel to stay straight through a squash or a chicken joint without the dead weight of a cleaver. The blade is 40Cr13 stainless steel, tempered twice, so it takes a fine edge for everyday slicing and chopping.
The overall length is 12.5" (32 cm), so the handle clears the board and your knuckles stay above it. It suits vegetables and boneless meat. Hand-wash and dry it, and hone it when the edge starts pushing rather than parting.

Technical Specifications
Steel tempered twice
40Cr13 is a stainless steel that can be brought to a fine edge. This blade goes through the tempering heat treatment twice, which balances hardness with toughness for regular prep. Hone it often, and sharpen it on a stone when honing no longer brings back the bite.
A wide, stiff blade
With a spine 2.3 mm thick, the blade resists flexing when you press down through a squash or across a chicken joint, so the cut follows your line. It is still a kitchen knife rather than a cleaver, made for vegetables and boneless meat instead of heavy butchery.
