Oliva Elite 5 Inch Cheese & Tomato Knife

The Messermeister Oliva Elite 5" Cheese and Tomato Knife is the perfect addition to any cheese plate. This knife is hand-crafted from the finest German stainless steel. The serrated, wavy edge is suitable for cutting a wide variety of cheeses, tomatoes, and any other soft skinned fruit or vegetable. The fork tip is designed to move pieces from the cutting board to a plate. Marry this wonderfully timeless blade to a highly figured, golden piece of natural olive wood to boast the best of vintage artisanal cutting instruments from yesteryear.

• The German 1.4116 stainless carbon alloy blade resists stains and corrosion, exhibits toughness and durability, holds its edge retention, and is easy to re-sharpen to a razor-like edge.
• This knife line is one-piece, hot-drop hammer forged, which produces the strongest blade from heel to tip. The blades are heat treated and quenched to achieve an HRC Rockwell of 58.
• The three-step, 15° Elite edge is hand stropped on a cloth wheel, creating the sharpest possible cutting surface on an edged tool.
• The bolsterless heel simplifies all cutting, sharpening and honing tasks, making use of the entire blade from heel to tip.
• Handcrafted in the historic cutlery capital of Solingen, Germany.
