Blade - developed in the classic style of Chef's Knife, providing a wide range of uses and precision necessary for everyday cooking. Its slightly curved cutting edge allows for smooth, rocking movements that greatly improve ergonomics when chopping and slicing. The blade's wide profile offers stable support for the guiding hand and also allows for convenient handling of ingredients. The blade, made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel, is durable and easy to sharpen, even without specialized tools. Blade's smooth surface reduces product sticking, which increases comfort and hygiene. The lack of additional grooves emphasizes the practical nature of the knife, aimed at everyday efficiency. MAM 538 will perform well in both simple and more advanced tasks, offering durability, stability and high precision cutting.

Handle - is made of lightweight and durable polymer material , resistant to moisture, chemicals and varying temperatures. This material ensures high hygiene and reliability, even during intensive use in the kitchen. The ergonomic shape has been carefully adjusted to the natural position of the hand, allowing a firm and stable grip without excessive strain on the wrist. The textured surface improves grip, reducing the risk of slipping - even when working in difficult conditions.
