Kitchen knives: Professional knives of the highest quality

Buy kitchen knives from renowned manufacturers in the Banholzer store

High-quality kitchen knives are an integral part of any well-equipped professional kitchen. The choice of a suitable knife is almost a philosophical question for chefs. While some use an all-purpose knife for all kitchen tasks, others rely on having special kitchen knives for vegetables, meat or cheese with which they process the food. The selection of knives in the Banholzer online store is so large that there is a suitable product for every requirement.

What makes a good kitchen knife?

Professional kitchen knives must meet high standards so that they can withstand everyday use in the kitchen. A high-quality knife for the kitchen is characterized by several important features relating to functionality, durability and safety.

Sharp blade: The blade of a good kitchen knife must be sharp enough to allow the chef to cut through food effortlessly without having to apply excessive pressure. A sharp blade enables precise cuts through meat and vegetables and reduces the risk of accidents.
Stainless material: High-quality kitchen knives are made of robust materials such as stainless steel or carbon steel. These materials offer a good balance between sharpness, durability and corrosion resistance.
Ergonomic handle: When buying your new knives, make sure they are easy and comfortable to use. They should have an ergonomically designed handle that sits comfortably in the hand and provides a secure grip. This means that the hand does not tire so quickly and the chef has sufficient control over the knife when cutting. A kitchen knife with a wooden handle is usually a good choice.
Balanced weight distribution: Weight distribution is particularly important for a kitchen knife to maintain balance and control.
Easy to clean: Very expensive kitchen knives in particular are usually not suitable for the dishwasher. Nevertheless, they should be as easy to care for as possible and be easy to clean by hand.

Meat knives
To be able to glide through the meat fibers without tearing them, carving knives must have a very fine and thin blade. There are different variants for cutting meat - from boning knives to cleavers.
Bread knife
A bread knife has been specially developed for cutting bread. It has a long, serrated blade that glides effortlessly through crispy crusts and soft insides without crushing the bread.
Salmon knife
The salmon knife is a narrow, flexible knife with a long, slim blade that has been specially developed for the precise filleting of salmon and other types of fish. Thanks to the narrow blade, the chef can effortlessly cut along the fish bones and produce delicate fillets.

The Santoku knife as an exclusive all-rounder in your kitchen

In recent years, Japanese Santoku knives, which can be used for a wide variety of kitchen tasks, have also become increasingly common in kitchens here. The name "Santoku" literally means "three virtues" or "three tasks", which refers to the three main functions of the knife: cutting meat, fish and vegetables.

A typical Santoku knife has a wide, straight blade with a pronounced tip. Compared to a classic European chef's knife, the blade is shorter and wider, allowing for a more efficient cutting motion. The blade is usually very sharp and remains so for a long time thanks to high-quality steel alloys.

Traditional Japanese kitchen knives perform a variety of tasks in the kitchen, including finely slicing, dicing, mincing and chopping meat, fish and vegetables.

Storage solutions for your professional kitchen knives

To prevent a good kitchen knife from becoming blunt, rusting or suffering other damage, you should always store it correctly. In the Banholzer online store, we offer you suitable solutions for storing your knives in the kitchen. Knives lying loose in a drawer can quickly become damaged because the blades rub against each other, easily creating corners and edges.

Magnetic strips, which you simply attach to the wall at the required length, are particularly practical and space-saving. Thanks to the strong magnets, even a large kitchen knife can be attached to the strip securely and, above all, in a space-saving manner.

Alternatively, wooden knife blocks are also suitable. The blades are also well protected in these. Accidents caused by sharp kitchen knives lying around are avoided and the knife is always ready to hand when it is needed.

Sharpening knives correctly: Tips and the right accessories

Knives wear out quickly in daily use and therefore need to be sharpened regularly. A honing steel is ideal for this. You can use it to realign the blade to compensate for tiny bends caused by using the knife. After using the honing steel, the blade will cut evenly again. When cutting food, tiny burrs can form along the blade, which impair the sharpness of the knife. By honing along the honing steel, these burrs are removed and the edge is smooth and literally razor-sharp again.
