    FAQs

    How does this chef knife compare to a standard Western-style chef knife?

    This chef knife features a slightly straighter edge and thinner profile than many Western knives, allowing for cleaner push-cutting, precise slicing, and reduced resistance when working through vegetables or proteins. The AUS-10 Damascus construction also offers longer edge retention compared to most Western stainless steel blades.

    Does the honeycomb resin handle provide a secure grip during extended prep sessions?

    Yes. The honeycomb resin handle is designed not just for aesthetics but for stability and comfort. Its shape supports a natural pinch grip, while the resin material resists moisture and temperature changes—ensuring a secure, slip-resistant feel even during long sessions of slicing or chopping.

    What types of tasks is this 21 cm chef knife best suited for?

    Its versatile blade length and balance make it ideal for chopping vegetables, slicing meats, dicing onions, mincing herbs, and handling detailed prep tasks. It’s an excellent all-purpose knife for both home cooks and chefs seeking a reliable daily workhorse.

    How should I care for the Damascus blade to maintain the pattern and sharpness?

    Handwash and dry the knife immediately after each use, avoid abrasive pads, and store it in its included sheath, knife block, or magnetic strip. Regular honing keeps the edge aligned, and occasional sharpening with a whetstone restores peak performance while preserving the Damascus pattern’s contrast.

    What is the return or warranty policy for this knife?

    Chef Supply Co stands by its products and all Chef Supply Co branded products are backed by our limited lifetime warranty. Products not branded Chef Supply Co only carry a 12 month warranty unless the otherwise advised by the manufacturer.

    We cover any faults of materials or workmanship at our discretion.

    Can this knife cut through bones or frozen foods?

    We recommend using a cleaver or specialty knife for bones or frozen items. Using a standard kitchen knife may damage the blade.

    Is this knife dishwasher-safe?

    We recommend handwashing to protect the blade’s edge and maintain the handle’s integrity. Dishwashers can dull the blade and damage the handle over time.

    How should I sharpen this knife?

    You can use a whetstone, honing rod, or professional sharpener. Regular honing maintains the edge, while sharpening restores it when dull.

    What’s the best way to store this knife?

    Store it in a knife block, magnetic strip, blade guard, or sheath to keep the edge protected and prevent accidents.
