Salmon Knife Stainless Steel, Berti Exclusive for Viadurini - Pirandello

Salmon knife entirely handmade in Italy.

Salmon knife: it is a variant of the ham knife, always with a flexible and long blade suitable for obtaining thin slices and equipped with alveoli that prevent the salmon from sticking to the blade risking breaking the slices during the cutting action. The blades are obtained by hot forging with a hammer, once the only way to guarantee a good cutting quality (the blows of the hammer break and order the molecules of the steel) today are very appreciated for their beautiful and elegant appearance. Made with a solid handle, i.e. the blade has the tang hidden inside the handle, they have the surface finish of the satin blade. Produced entirely by hand in small quantities and without division of labor, those who initiate them finish them: on each blade you will find the initials of the craftsman who made them. The heat treatment also includes sub-cooling at -80 ° C to ensure maximum cutting capacity and duration.
