A utility knife is between a chef’s knife and paring knife in size, and as such is immensely versatile and the favorite of many chefs. Small enough to handle easily, but big enough for a variety of medium-size cutting tasks, this knife can peel, chop and slice an array of ingredients.
Certified as a Master Bladesmith by the American Bladesmith Society, Bob Kramer is one of the few Master Bladesmiths in the world specializing in kitchen cutlery. Professional chefs wait years for a Kramer original. We worked with the master himself and renowned knife maker Zwilling J.A. Henckels for this exquisite line of carbon steel knives made by artisans in Seki City, the Japanese knife-making capital since the 13th century. Now home chefs can experience the unrivaled performance of a Kramer original.
