Chroma Chefsmesser CCC Sebastian Conran 5 Inch Utility Knife
By Chroma
Design by Sebastian Conran
The famous British designer Sebastian Conran has come up with a conventional knife that is rather unbeatable. With support from the many chefs working in his London restaurants, he developed this classical/modern knife of the highest practical value. CCC impresses with its performance and elegance.
The blade has a sandwich construction, which means that a very hard steel (VG-14, HRC 59°) is protected by two softer steels. The outer softer steels lend the blade toughness an stability, while the inner steel comprises the actual cutting edge, which is hard, slender, and therefore capable of being sharpened to a very fine edge.
The CCC knife sits wonderfully in your hand.
The CCC Series, despite being extremely sharp, is also astonishingly robust (the sharper the knife, the more delicate it is).
