Tecna Chef's Knife TC49030L, 30 cm, Blue

The Tecna Chef's Knife TC49030L from Ambrogio Sanelli is a professional chef's knife with a 30 cm (12") blade for chopping, slicing and dicing in professional kitchens, restaurants and catering operations. The handle colour follows the HACCP system: blue identifies knives kept for fish and seafood, 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 blue model is also made with blades of 16 cm, 20 cm and 24 cm. At this 30 cm length the range also comes with Red, Yellow, White, Green and Black handles. Designed and made in Premana, Italy, by Ambrogio Sanelli, professional knife makers since 1864.
