The Messermeister Meridian Elite 8 Inch Stealth Chef’s Knife is the workhorse in every kitchen. You will gravitate to this knife and will find yourself using it for 90% of all your cutting tasks.  It has an industrial strength polyoxymethylene or “POM” handle. The hand forged Stealth blade is about 25% thinner and 10% lighter than our traditional chef’s knife. It has been ground down to a thin profile to create a razor sharp edge. You can chop, slice, dice and mince your way through extended cutting tasks without fatigue.

• Chef's Knife - Meridian Elite knives define tradition with the triple-rivet, full-exposed tang series. Handcrafted in Solingen, Germany, they are one piece, hot-drop hammer forged for a sharper knife & include POM handles for comfort and durability.
• Blade with a purpose - The smooth, fine edges on this chef’s knife can be used to cut, chop, slice & dice all firm and soft fruits, vegetables, meats, and fish.
• High Quality - Our 15-degree blades are handcrafted from German 1.4116 steel alloy for knives that are sharp, rust resistant & easy to maintain. The bolsterless heel simplifies all cutting, sharpening & honing tasks, making use of the entire blade.
• The blades are heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 57-58.
