Cangshan’s Helena series knives are elegant and minimalist with sleek, smooth lines. The slim semi-bolster balances the knife’s full tang and two stain-resistant rivets solidly fasten the ergonomic handle to the blade for a secure, comfortable grip. Each blade is forged from high-alloy German X50CrMoV15 steel and is heat treated through Cangshan’s proprietary ULTRA6 heat treatment that adds strength and durability and a score of 58+/-2 on the Rockwell Hardness Scale. They are sharpened to a precise 16° angle.
This set includes the three most used kitchen knives. The Helena Chef’s Knife is one of the kitchen’s most essential and versatile tools and is designed for push cuts as well as the popular rocking motion. The blade is perfect for slicing, dicing, mincing, and chopping meats, vegetables, and fruits. The wide blade on the chef’s knife helps to maintain control for top-to-bottom cuts through tougher foods such as root vegetables. The 5” Serrated Utility knife will slice bagels, crusty breads, cured meats, fruits and vegetables. Serrations allow clean cuts of exteriors while preserving more delicate interiors such as bread and fresh tomatoes. The 3.5” paring knife is essential for precise kitchen tasks such as slicing small fruits, trimming mushrooms, chopping herbs, creating a garnish, or peeling and mincing garlic. This set is a great gift for the new cook.
