A set of four specialised blades, each shaped for a distinct cutting task in a busy kitchen. Professional knives rely on a sharp, durable edge and a balanced handle to transfer the chef's force directly to the food without strain. The blades are typically forged from high-carbon stainless steel, which holds an edge longer than softer alloys and resists corrosion from acids and moisture. Each blade is ground to a precise bevel angle that determines whether it slices, chops, dices or juliennes; the angle also affects how easily the knife glides through different textures, from firm root vegetables to delicate herbs.
The operator selects the blade for the task, grips the handle firmly, and uses a smooth, controlled motion. A rocking or push-cut technique is common for chopping, while a long, even draw is used for slicing. The weight of the knife does the work, so the user applies minimal downward pressure, reducing fatigue over long service.
Cleaning follows immediately after use: the blades are washed in warm water with a mild detergent, dried thoroughly, and stored in a way that protects the edges from contact with other utensils. Regular honing on a steel rod realigns the microscopic teeth of the edge, extending the interval between full sharpening sessions.
The set is supplied as a single article, CL5L4S, under the FIMAR brand, and is catalogued in the professional cutlery section for commercial kitchens.
