20 cm Chef Knife with a Black Handle for Everyday Kitchen Prep

You can feel a short knife the moment you meet something big. Halfway through a cabbage the blade runs out, you saw at it, and the cut goes crooked.

What Are the Key Features of This 20 cm Black-Handled Chef Knife?

• A 20 cm blade cuts in one pass: longer than most of what you put under it, so the edge draws all the way through instead of sawing and crushing.
• Long enough to rock on the board: the tip stays down while the heel lifts, which is how herbs, garlic and onion get chopped fine without chasing them around.
• Black handle, easy to see: it stands out on a pale worktop and in a full sink, which is where a knife you cannot see becomes the dangerous one.
• Check the photographs for handle material: grip when greasy is the thing that matters most on a knife handle.
• Store it edge-protected: 20 cm loose in a cutlery drawer blunts the knife and catches fingers. A strip, a block or a sheath keeps it sharp longer.

Where Can You Use This 20 cm Chef Knife?

• On the daily board: onion, tomato, pepper and cabbage
• Through a chicken breast, in one draw rather than two
• On a watermelon in summer
• Rocking on the board for herbs and garlic, tip down
• Stored on a magnetic strip, in a block, or in a sheath: never loose among the spoons

Why Choose a 20 cm Blade Over a Short Knife?

• Leave more than 20 cm on the strip: that figure is the blade alone, so give a magnetic strip or block extra room for the handle.
• Built for the everyday board: bread is the one job it is not made for.
