Paring knife and vegetable peeer TWIN GRIP, red, Zwilling

Product detailed description

DESCRIPTION

The set from the Twin Grip collection by Zwilling includes a vegetable peeler and a peeling knife with a short straight blade length of 9 cm suitable for peeling, trimming and cutting smaller fruits and vegetables. A potato peeler is ideal for potatoes and other fruit and vegetables.

The knife is forged from a single piece of steel, thus it is without welds and without joints. It is perfectly balanced and safe and easy to work with. The blade is freeze hardened. The knife has long-lasting sharpness, which is easily restored thanks to manual sharpening, polishing and laser control.

The handle is ergonomically shaped, seamless and made of durable synthetic. The bolster balances the knife and protects the fingers when cutting. The blade of the knife is made of a special mixture of German stainless steel, chrome and carbon with a hardness of approx. 57 HRC (Rockwell scale). The knife is dishwasher safe, but we recommend a gentler hand wash. You can ensure the sharpness and longevity of your knife by regular maintenance with sharpener and whetstone. For safe and convenient storage, use the knife block.

Maintenance of Zwilling knives

Washing and cleaning

Zwilling knives are dishwasher safe thanks to the special formula of the high-quality steel, however knives should not be exposed to temperatures above 55 °C and should not touch any other objects (pots, cutlery, other knives). Dishwasher detergents often contain aggressive chemicals that can damage the surface of the steel and the handle while also shortening the life of the blades and reducing the time they retain their high sharpness. Hand washing is gentler on knives and is therefore recommended. Wash knives with lukewarm water and a mild detergent with the soft side of a sponge.

Cutting mat

We recommend using a flexible cutting board - wooden, silicone or plastic. Materials that are too hard, such as glass, granite or ceramic, can damage the blade and cutting edge under certain circumstances.

Sharpening / grinding

Every knife, even the best one, sooner or later loses its original sharpness and needs to be sharpened. And because a dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp one, we recommend that you sharpen your knives regularly. If a "tooth" or deformation develops on the knife, we recommend that the knife be entrusted to a specialist (proven cutlery) as soon as possible.
We recommend using original Zwilling sharpeners and whetstones for sharpening.

Safe storage

Store knives in a safe place (out of reach of children), always making sure the handle is facing you, not the blade. The blades should not touch each other during storage.
Always place only cleaned and dried knives in the wooden knife block or on the magnetic bar .

The right knife

Always use the right knife - the size and texture of the ingredients you are processing (meat, vegetables, fish, baked goods) varies greatly, so use specific cutting techniques and therefore a specific knife for each ingredient.
