"Sick. Simply sick"
The Oliva Elite 9" Chef’s Knife pairs a sleek, stealth blade with a gorgeous olive wood handle for razor-sharp slicing, dicing, and mincing. Hand-forged with Messermeister’s signature stealth blade—25% thinner and 10% lighter than traditional western chef’s knives—the lighter weight offers unmatched precision and reduced fatigue during long prep sessions. The elegant Mediterranean olive wood handle adds a natural, luxurious touch while providing a secure, ergonomic grip. Balanced, lightweight, and visually stunning, this blade does it all and looks good doing it.

- The bolsterless heel simplifies all cutting, sharpening and honing tasks, making use of the entire blade from heel to tip.
- Handcrafted in the historic cutlery capital of Solingen, Germany.
- 100% Messermeister quality

Epic Blade
"What an amazing gift to one of my clients after completing their restaurant build. Thanks so much for the amazing knife."
Love it
"Awesome knife 😎 I just want a 4” version!!!! ;)"
A great 9" knife!
"I wanted to use this knife for several weeks before writing a review. After a couple of months, this knife (9" Oliva Elite Chef's) has been a steady favorite in most food preparation tasks. I find that it is a well-balanced knife; the wood handle is comfortable and attractive, and cutting is smooth even for thin slices. I don't find the bigger size a hindrance for the home kitchen; just get a cutting board suitable for it. I actually prefer it now over a smaller chef's knife for its heft, but that's just me. I use it mainly for vegetables of all types and fruit (being a vegetarian). I'm sure it will last a long time. Recommended."
A near perfect knife!
"I like where the belly is on it and also the height of the blade. It is bolsterless and this makes it easier and better to keep sharp longevity wise. The fit and finish are lovely. It is not too heavy for a German knife."
Slice like a Pro :-)
"It balances beautifully and slices like a pro! I adore this knife :-)"
Exactly what you'd want in a high-end knife
"Great knife. Sharp out of the box. Shape of the handle feels good in the hand. Beautiful knife."

"Stellar knife. Use it all the time. Sharp as expected. Handle wood is beautiful,"
