You will find yourself using the Messermeister Royale Elite 6 Inch Utility Knife for all of your go-to tasks in the kitchen. With a fine edge, this traditional style utility knife is one of the most frequently used knives in the kitchen. A favorite for prepping and peeling produce as well as slicing meats and cheeses.
Features
The German 1.4116 stainless carbon alloy blade resists stains and corrosion, exhibits toughness and durability, holds its edge retention, and is easy to re-sharpen to a razor-like edge.
This knife line is one-piece, hot-drop hammer forged, which produces the strongest blade from heel to tip. The blades are heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 57-58.
The three-step, 15° Elite edge is hand stropped on a cloth wheel, creating the sharpest possible cutting surface on an edged tool.
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
Care

Do not place in dishwasher.

I have purchased the small paring knife n I love that it’s very sharp . But I expected the same or better with this larger utility knife and I ve found it’s not sharp . For $150 I expected a very sharp knife . I have to sharpen frequently , why ? It’s a pretty knife but I could have spent a quarter of the money for the quality I got . Not happy

Love this knife. I use my royale chefs knife for most everything, so this didn’t feel like this was a must-have, but I’m really glad that I got it. Of course it gorgeous, but it’s really handy as a second knife when prepping.

Make me feel fast and stealthy like a royal elite commando!!!

The knife is very sharp and very beautiful, and will bridge the gap between a chef's knife and a paring knife.
