Cook's Utility Knife with a 4¾-Inch Stainless Steel Blade and Offset Handle for Fruit and Vegetable Prep
The cook's utility knife combines the maneuverability of a paring knife with the versatility of a larger kitchen knife. Its 4¾-inch blade handles tasks such as cutting shallots, slicing sausage, preparing root vegetables for stew and halving grapes for salad. The offset handle gives your knuckles clearance while you cut.
Rada crafts the blade from T420 high-carbon stainless steel, hand sharpens the edge and hollow grinds it for sharpness. Choose the silver cast aluminum handle for a satin finish or the black molded resin handle. Both versions measure 8⅝ inches overall, and hand washing is recommended to protect the edge and handle.
