트라몬티나 플레누스 8인치 셰프 나이프, 스테인리스 스틸

I was pleasantly surprised how well this blade held its edge after a month of daily use — the thermal treatment really makes a difference. It feels balanced and comfortable for chopping veggies.

The polypropylene handle gives a solid, non-slip grip even when my hands are slightly wet from rinsing veggies. It’s held up fine in the dishwasher after a week of heavy use, and the edge still feels sharp on tomatoes and herbs.

The thermal treatment on this blade is no joke—it sliced through a butternut squash with barely any pressure, and the polypropylene handle stayed grippy even with wet hands. I’ve put it in the dishwasher three times now and the edge hasn’t dulled a bit, which is more than I can say for my old knife.
