Tecna Half Heavy Butcher Knife TQ03028R, 28 cm, Red

The Tecna Half Heavy Butcher Knife TQ03028R from Ambrogio Sanelli is a professional butcher knife with a 28 cm (11") blade, 3 mm thick and weighing 0.6 kg, for heavy cutting and portioning work in butcheries, meat processing rooms and catering kitchens. The red handle marks it for raw meat under the HACCP colour system, keeping it separate from knives used on cooked food, fish or vegetables.

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 is dual-injection: a rigid polypropylene core bonded to the steel tang, covered with a soft SEBS outer layer that uses microspheres for a secure, anti-slip grip. All materials are non-toxic, sterilisable and dishwasher safe, and resistant to high temperatures.

The knife complies with current food safety and hygiene regulations and is designed and made in Premana, Italy, by Ambrogio Sanelli, professional knife makers since 1864.
