Designed for precision and durability, this knife is a must-have for millennial professionals seeking both style and performance in their kitchen arsenal. ## Description Chef’s knife + Cleaver = Clef. This hybrid knife gives you the best of both worlds. It marries the precision of a chef’s knife with the utility of a cleaver, featuring both a perfectly tapered edge with a wide surface area perfect for scooping up freshly-chopped ingredients. Precision-forged form a single piece of high-carbon German Steel, it features a grippy yet sleek handle that provides a secure, comfortable grip. Any way you cut it, it’s a cut above. Excess heat and detergent from automatic dishwashers can damage or stain the blades, so dishwashers are not recommended. Do not allow blades to soak in water. Do not allow food to remain on blade after use, as this may cause stains. In most cases, persistent stains can be easily removed with a standard stainless-steel cleanser & polish. Use a sharpener and honing rod between uses to keep knives sharp. It’s recommended to use a whetstone or have your knives professionally sharpened once or twice a year. (See more sharpening instructions below.) To preserve sharp edges, use knives on a wood or soft plastic cutting board. Hard surfaces such as countertops, dinner plates, or glass cutting boards will dull blades. Knives are not made to cut bones, frozen foods, or other hard objects. Love this knife and it will love you back. Use extreme caution to protect against injury. These knives are extremely sharp. I’m not kidding, I seriously mangled my finger with this knife when we were shooting promo videos, and I kinda-sorta know what I’m doing. Never use a knife as a can opener, pry bar, screwdriver, wedge, or hand tool. Never handle a knife by the blade. Keep sharp edges pointed away from you when laying a knife down. Never attempt to catch a falling knife. Keep all knives away from children. Store properly in a knife block, roll, or other safe place. ## Features - Good Housekeeping "Standout Knife" of the 2022 - Forged from a single piece of high-carbon 1.4116 German steel - Tempered, ground, and polished for maximum sharpness - Full-tang handle provides a balanced, comfortable grip - Hybrid chef’s knife and cleaver design is powerful and precise ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08WJT6P6B | | Best Sellers Rank | #29,282 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #57 in Chef's Knives | | Blade Color | Silver | | Blade Edge | Plain | | Blade Material Type | High Carbon Steel | | Brand Name | Babish | | Color | Stainless Blade/Black ABS Handle | | Construction Type | Forged | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (3,030) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00085081544766 | | Handle Material | Stainless Steel | | Included Components | 7.5IN German Stainless Steel Clef Knife | | Item Length | 11.5 inches | | Item Type Name | Babish Cutlery | | Item Weight | 372 g | | Manufacturer | Gibson Overseas Inc | | Manufacturer Part Number | 131295.01R | | Material Type | Carbon Steel | | Model Number | 131295.01R | | Number of Items | 1 | | Set Name | Clef Knife (7.5") | | Size | Clef Knife (7.5") | | UPC | 085081544766 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Blade Edge:** Plain - **Blade Material:** High Carbon Steel - **Brand:** Babish - **Color:** Stainless Blade/Black ABS Handle - **Handle Material:** Stainless Steel ## Images ![High-Carbon 1.4116 German Steel Cutlery, 7.5" Clef (Cleaver + Chef) Kitchen Knife, Good Housekeeping Standout Knife of 2022 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71jkk+CNabL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What would I use the clef knife for vs the chef/santoku?** A: Great question! The Clef knife marries the precision of a chef’s knife with the utility of a cleaver, featuring both a perfectly tapered edge with a wide surface area perfect for scooping up freshly-chopped ingredients. **Q: What is the bevel angle?** A: Well unless you are doing the manual angle yourself it’s about 13-15 degrees. However I suggest mimicking the angle on this knife the best way to do this is with a sharpie. Run the side of the sharpie on the grind edge on both sides and sharpen until the sharpie is gone. The work your burr and leather strap for the finishing touches. I recommend doing this with all of you knifes unless you are confident in doing a correct convex edge. Anyway saber grinds with a micro edge are great for king Chen knife edges. Also a side note avoid the tough steels for kitchen knifes. Just gone or strap your edge b4 every use and you will be good! **Q: Where are they manufactured?** A: China **Q: For sharpening purposes, what is the bevel angle these have from the manufacturer? Thanks!** A: It is roughly 20 degrees.
