Chroma Type 301: 2 Piece Set Includes P02/09

A santoku knife is often called an Asian chef’s knife. They have a straighter edge than a chef’s knife, and a more rounded spine, particularly near the point. They are also generally lighter and thinner, allowing them to more easily chop vegetables.
A paring knife has a plain edge blade that is ideal for peeling and other small or intricate work (such as deveining a shrimp, removing the seeds from a jalapeno, or cutting small garnishes). It is designed to be an all-purpose knife, similar to a chef’s knife, except smaller.

The handle of the Type 301 by F.A. Porsche is constructed of 18/10 stainless steel, and the blade is made of high-quality Japanese 301 steel. The blade of each knife is carefully sharpened by the hand of a master.

The advantages Type 301 are:
An ergonomic handle – designed by F.A. Porsche working with the chef of the decade, Jörg Wörther
A metal “pearl” that clearly demarcates the end of the handle, for better control when cutting
A seamless perfection and hygienic transition from blade to handle
A special grinding method is used, so the knife stays sharp longer and is easier to sharpen
