The Helena Chef's Knife is one of the kitchen's most essential and versatile tools. Designed for both push cuts and the popular rocking motion, this blade is perfectly shaped for slicing, dicing, mincing, and chopping a wide variety of meats, vegetables, and fruits. The wider blade on the chef's knife assists in maintaining control for a straight top-to-bottom cut through tougher foods, like starchy root vegetables. The length makes for a comfortable and nimble extension of the hand.
