Arcos Manhattan 10cm extreme edge forged paring knife

Arcos knives, made in Spain, are designed for professionals and home cooks alike. They are high-performance, ergonomic and intuitive, making them a pleasure to use every time. They'll help you prepare your most complex recipes, as well as your everyday meals.

The Arcos Manhattan series is unique. High-quality materials combined with innovative manufacturing processes and Arcos know-how result in knives that are out of the ordinary in terms of efficiency.

This 10cmparing knife is ideal for peeling and slicing small fruits and vegetables. Its practical, easy-to-handle blade makes precision work a snap. An indispensable kitchen knife.

The knife is forged, i.e. made from a single solid bar of steel. It is then heated and pressed into its final shape. Since it comes from a single block, it is much stronger, with no sticking points that could weaken it over the long term.

The blade is made of NITRUM®stainless steel, a nitrogen-concentrated alloy for increased blade hardness (a composition specially developed by Arcos). With a hardness of 57 HRC, it offers a long-lasting edge for long-lasting performance, while remaining easy to maintain. It's a very good steel for everyday use.

The knife features a new-generation cutting edge, the fruit of the latest technologies in the sector. Its total cutting angle, called Silk Edge®, is 24/25°: your cuts are incredibly precise and clean.

The back of the blade has also been softened, a special design that adapts the cutting surface to the specific gestures of chefs. Its bolster also features a new design, allowing total sharpening of the wire to guarantee perfect cutting quality.

The handle is made of black POM, a highly resistant synthetic material, particularly in the face of temperature variations and detergents often encountered in the kitchen. It is enriched with Bactiproof Silver® treatment, which effectively fights bacteria. 3 stainless steel rivets secure the POM to the full tang blade.

In terms of design, this is a timeless knife that will always find its place in the kitchen, thanks to its dynamic shape and sober colors.

You can wash it by hand, then dry it immediately to avoid prolonged contact with moisture. That way, you'll be able to look after it for years to come.
