SUPREME SERIES · X02

The everyday chef's knife, done honestly

This is the knife you reach for first. An 8" / 210mm blade is the all-rounder length — long enough to rock through a board of onions, nimble enough for herbs and garlic. The Supreme Series keeps it simple: a single grade of German stainless, full-tang construction and a balanced red wood handle. No Damascus pattern, no premium price for cladding you don't need — just a workhorse that takes an edge and is easy to live with.

WHY THIS BLADE

Length and balance that suit real prep

At 210mm with a 2.2mm spine and a 206g net weight, this chef knife sits in the sweet spot — enough length and heft to drive through dense veg, light enough to control for fine work. The full tang runs the length of the handle for balance behind the edge, and the 15° per-side grind keeps it keen without making it fragile. It is built for everyday kitchen prep, not for bones or frozen food.

THE STEEL

German 1.4116 — not Damascus, and that's the point

The blade is solid German 1.4116 (X50CrMoV15) stainless — the same proven cutlery steel used by major German makers. It is monosteel: no san-mai, no Damascus cladding, no decorative pattern. Hardened to 56-58 HRC by vacuum heat treatment, it holds a working edge while staying tough and easy to re-sharpen at home. If you want a pattern-welded blade, look at our Damascus series; if you want a dependable daily driver that won't chip and won't cost a fortune, this is it.
