Tecna Chef's Knife TC49020G, 20 cm, Green

The Tecna Chef's Knife TC49020G from Ambrogio Sanelli is a professional chef's knife with a 20 cm (8") blade for chopping, slicing and dicing in professional kitchens, restaurants and catering operations. The handle colour follows the HACCP system: green identifies knives kept for fruit and vegetables, so this knife stays separate from tools used on other food groups.

The blade is NITRO-B nitrogen stainless steel (1.4916) with a semi-polished finish, and every piece receives a laser-controlled final sharpening for a long-lasting edge. The handle has a rigid polypropylene core bonded to the steel tang, covered by a softer SEBS outer layer with microspheres that reduce slipperiness and improve grip. All materials are dishwasher safe, sterilisable and resistant to extreme temperatures, and comply with current food safety and hygiene regulations.

The same green model is also made with blades of 16 cm, 22 cm, 24 cm, 28 cm and 30 cm. At this 20 cm length the range also comes with Red, Yellow, Blue, White and Black handles. Designed and made in Premana, Italy, by Ambrogio Sanelli, professional knife makers since 1864.
