Arcos Manhattan forged Chef's knife 25cm extreme cutting edge

Arcos knives have been made in Spain for centuries. Arcos knives are designed for professional chefs and hobbyists alike. They are high-performance, functional and intuitive, to make your time in the kitchen a pleasure. They'll help you prepare your most complex recipes, as well as your simplest everyday meals.

The Arcos Manhattan knife 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 performance.

The knife is forged, which means it's made from a single solid bar of steel. It is then heated and pressed into its final shape. Since it's made from a single piece, it's much stronger, as there are no welds that could weaken it over time.

This 25cm chef's knife is a versatile knife. It can be used to chop, mince or minced various types of food, such as meats, vegetables or fresh herbs. It should be noted, however, that this is a large model, and not recommended for novices.

Its blade is made of NITRUM®stainless steel, an alloy enriched with nitrogen to increase blade hardness (a composition specially developed by the manufacturer). It boasts a hardness of 57 HRC, offering you a durably marked edge for long-lasting performance, while remaining easy to sharpen.

It's an excellent alloy for everyday use. The knife features a new-generation cutting edge, the fruit of the latest technologies in the sector. Its cutting angle, named Silk Edge®, is a cumulative 24/25°: your cuts are incredibly precise and clean. Your food is sliced effortlessly. The back of the blade has been softened to adapt the cutting surface to the specific gestures of chefs. Its bolster also features a new design, allowing the wire to be completely sharpened to guarantee perfect cutting quality.

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

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