The knife for slicing hams comfortably and evenly
The Guillaume Leonard Cuistot 25cm ham knife is ideal for making thin, even slices of ham, whether raw, cooked or cured. Its long, narrow blade glides effortlessly through the meat, and its ergonomic handle ensures good stability while cutting. Made from high-quality German stainless steel and delivered in an elegant case, this ham knife combines practicality and refinement.
A long, flexible blade for smooth cutting
The 25cm blade of this knife is made of German 1.4116 stainless steel, an alloy renowned for its good corrosion resistance and ease of maintenance thanks to the presence of nitrogen and chromium in its composition.
With a hardness of around 56-58 HRC on the Rockwell scale, this steel offers a good compromise between cutting performance and ease of sharpening. It is equally suited to the novice hobby cook and the professional looking to equip himself at lower cost.
The blade has a polished finish, which makes it easier for the knife to glide when cutting ham, while also facilitating cleaning. Its flat edge provides a fine cutting edge, ensuring a clean cut without tearing the fibers of the ham.
Finally, the Guillaume Leonard logo is discreetly affixed to the blade, testifying to quality and attention to detail.
A comfortable handle with a traditional design
The ham knife's handle is made from red sandalwood. This is a dense species with long-lasting durability. This wood adds a warm touch to the knife, with characteristic red highlights and good resistance to humidity.
The rounded Western shape of the palm is designed to fit your palm naturally, giving you a stable and comfortable grip, even during long cutting sessions.
Three stainless-steel rivets securely fasten the wood inserts to the tang. The stainless steel bolster ensures good balance. Enjoy a knife with simple elegance, sturdiness and durability.
