Santoku knife N°219 INTEMPORA 17 cm, blue, POM, Opinel

Product detailed description

While some knives strictly stick to a single task, the N°219 INTEMPORA prefers a more diverse schedule. Chopping, slicing, vegetables, fish, or seafood - as soon as action begins on the cutting board, the Santoku certainly doesn't need to ask if it's even on shift today.

Main advantages:

• The Opinel N°219 INTEMPORA is a versatile kitchen knife for chopping, slicing, and the precise preparation of fish, seafood, and other ingredients.
• The wide 17 cm blade provides ample working surface for the comfortable processing of vegetables, meat, and fish.
• The Santoku is perfectly suited for chopping and slicing, and it is especially useful when preparing fish and seafood.
• After slicing, you can also use the wide surface of the blade to easily transfer the prepared ingredients from the cutting board to a container.
• The 3 mm thick blade remains rigid and stable during cutting, supporting a precise and controlled stroke.
• The Sandvik 12C27M stainless steel contains 0.52% carbon and offers high sharpness as well as very good cutting performance.
• The 14.5% chrome content contributes to the blade's good corrosion resistance during regular kitchen use.
• The addition of 0.60% manganese complements the properties of the steel used and supports its mechanical resistance during everyday work.
• The full tang construction runs the steel along the entire length of the handle, contributing to the knife's robustness, stability and balance.
• The moulded handle made of fiberglass-reinforced polyoxymethylene resists water, wear and impacts during intensive use.
• The curved handle shape and triangular profile support a secure and comfortable grip without unnecessarily straining your hand.
• The balanced construction makes working with the knife for longer periods easier and helps maintain good control during repetitive slicing and chopping.
• The continuous cutting edge allows you to use the full working length of the blade while also making the subsequent sharpening of the kitchen knife easier.
• The model belongs to the INTEMPORA collection, which focuses on robust, balanced kitchen knives with a full-tang construction and durable polymer handles.
• The knife is made in France and, thanks to its versatile design, can handle many everyday food preparation tasks.
