Stalgast Table Spoon Segura 355760

A table knife built for the demands of professional catering, the Stalgast Table Spoon Segura is shaped to balance in the hand and maintain a consistent edge through repeated service. Unlike domestic cutlery, professional table knives are forged from a single piece of stainless steel alloy chosen for its resistance to corrosion, staining and wear under constant washing and contact with food acids. The 18/0 grade indicates a composition of 18 percent chromium and no nickel, which keeps the metal bright and hard without the cost or allergic potential of nickel-bearing alloys.

The knife operates by concentrating force along a sharpened edge. When the blade meets food, the edge parts fibres cleanly rather than crushing them, so sauces and juices stay on the plate instead of being pushed aside. A well-maintained edge also reduces the effort needed from the diner, making the meal feel smoother and more controlled.

To use, the knife is placed on the table setting with the blade facing the plate. Diners lift it by the handle, cut food into manageable pieces, and return it to the table between uses. The 185 mm length provides enough leverage for most table tasks while remaining compact enough for easy storage in cutlery drawers or racks.

Construction is a single piece of inox 18/0 stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish that resists fingerprints and water spotting. The alloy's hardness means the knife can be honed to a fine edge and will hold that edge through multiple services before requiring professional sharpening.

Cleaning follows standard professional cutlery routines: immediate rinse after use to remove food residues, followed by machine washing in a detergent formulated for stainless steel. The 18/0 alloy does not require polishing agents, but a quick wipe with a soft cloth after drying prevents water marks and keeps the finish bright.

The Segura is a single model with no variants; its 185 mm length is the standard size for table knives in professional catering.
