Verfügbarkeit für Abholungen konnte nicht geladen werden
The handmade kitchen knife designed for the MCX Design Studio in collaboration with renowned Austrian knife maker Simon Krichbaum is a masterful blend of form, function, and artistry. This exceptional tool was born from a creative partnership forged during a visit to Krichbaum’s studio earlier this year, where every detail was meticulously sketched and refined. The result is a kitchen knife that embodies precision and performance. At its core, the knife features a 230mm tapered profile—a hallmark of Krichbaum’s signature design—which offers a versatile edge geometry suited for a wide range of culinary tasks. The Apex Ultra core, known for its extreme sharpness and edge retention, provides unparalleled cutting power. One of the most innovative features of this knife is its removable, takedown handle, allowing for convenient cleaning, maintenance, and easier sharpening of the blade.
The blade’s profile is a work of art, reflecting Simon’s elegant, pointed silhouette that combines stability and versatility. The subtle santoku-inspired tip enhances control during precision tasks like dicing, slicing, and mincing, while still offering the robust chopping ability of a classic chef’s knife. The kasumi-polished, low, convex bevels create a subtle yet effective geometry that excels in food release, ensuring ingredients slide cleanly off the blade with each cut. This design also contributes to the knife’s buttery smooth cutting action, gliding effortlessly across the cutting board. The edge’s slight radius allows for a natural rocking motion, making repetitive chopping and slicing feel smooth and efficient. The result is a knife that offers a harmonious blend of beauty and utility, catering to both professional chefs and dedicated home cooks.
Constructed with an Apex Ultra core and clad in S700 mild steel, this knife is engineered for exceptional sharpness and edge retention while maintaining an element of visual drama. The kasumi polish reveals the contrast between the dark kurouchi finish and the luminous blade’s surface, creating a striking aesthetic that’s as beautiful as it is functional. The removable handle is crafted from royal ebony, whose blonde, natural luster pairs stunningly with the black kurouchi finish on the blade. This thoughtful material combination elevates the knife’s visual appeal, offering an eye-catching presentation on any kitchen countertop. The takedown feature of the handle is not just practical but a nod to modern craftsmanship, allowing users to disassemble the knife for thorough cleaning and easier sharpening of the blade. This kitchen knife stands as a testament to modern knife-making excellence—a balance of heritage craftsmanship, precision engineering, and aesthetic brilliance.

Produktpflege:
Reinigung : Von Hand mit warmem Wasser reinigen. Vermeiden Sie nach Möglichkeit, den Griff zu benetzen.
Schärfen : Wir empfehlen die Verwendung von Wetzsteinen zum Schärfen Ihrer Messer und eines Honstabs oder -stahls, um den Grat zwischen den Schleifsitzungen zu erhalten.
Reaktive Stähle : Reaktive Stähle wie Aogami Super, Apex Ultra oder einer der vielen hochwertigen deutschen und schwedischen Reaktivstähle sind anfällig für Rost, wenn sie nicht richtig gepflegt werden. In diesem Fall empfehlen wir, das Messer zwischen den Einsätzen trocken zu halten und bei längerer Aufbewahrung des Messers die Messerklinge mit Tsubaki-Öl oder einem anderen lebensmittelechten Öl abzuwischen. Dies verhindert zwar nicht die Bildung von Patina auf der Klinge, aber es verhindert Rost. Eine Patina kann ein schönes persönliches Merkmal Ihres Messers sein und hilft, die Rostbildung zu stoppen. Trocknen Sie Ihr Messer also zwischen den Einsätzen regelmäßig ab, lagern Sie es trocken und tragen Sie bei längerer Lagerung von Zeit zu Zeit etwas Tsubaki-Öl auf.
Ein Nachschlagewerk für Stahlsorten
Griffpflege : Wenn Sie ein Messer mit einem nicht stabilisierten Holzgriff haben, können Sie von Zeit zu Zeit Tsubaki-Öl oder ein anderes lebensmittelechtes Öl auf den Griff auftragen. Lebensmittelechtes Wachs kann sowohl auf stabilisierte als auch auf nicht stabilisierte Holzgriffe aufgetragen werden. Tragen Sie niemals heißes Wachs oder Öl auf, da Sie sonst den Griff verziehen oder beschädigen könnten.
