Tecna Chef's Knife, Serrated Edge TC46020L, 20 cm, Blue

The Tecna Chef's Knife TC46020L from Ambrogio Sanelli is a professional chef's knife with a 20 cm (8") serrated blade for kitchens that need a toothed edge to saw through firm skins and crusts without crushing the food underneath. The blue handle places it in the fish and seafood station of a professional kitchen under the HACCP colour system.

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 dual-injection handle combines a rigid polypropylene core bonded to the steel tang with a soft SEBS outer layer moulded with microspheres to reduce slipperiness and improve grip; all the materials are non-toxic, dishwasher safe and sterilisable. In the HACCP colour system blue marks tools for fish and seafood, so the knife stays separate from tools used on raw meat, cooked food or produce.

The knife is made in Italy by Ambrogio Sanelli, professional knife makers since 1864, and each piece is laser marked with a batch number for traceability.
