Description

The Kitchen Knife Black Handle 9" delivers professional quality and ergonomic design in one sleek package. Forged from premium high-carbon stainless steel, the blade offers superior edge retention, corrosion resistance, and a razor-sharp finish that glides smoothly through ingredients. At 9 inches, the blade length strikes the perfect midpoint between agility and reach, giving cooks full control over delicate cuts as well as heavy-duty slicing.

Its full-tang construction (the blade running the entire length of the handle) ensures superb balance, strength, and safety. The black polymer handle is designed for a comfortable, non-slip grip that feels natural in hand. Resistant to heat, moisture, and kitchen oils, it remains steady even during long prep sessions. The handle’s matte finish adds modern elegance while concealing fingerprints — ideal for professional presentation.

Precision-ground and hand-polished, the 9-inch blade delivers seamless performance on meat, poultry, fish, and vegetables alike. The smooth cutting motion minimises cell damage to ingredients, helping food stay fresher and more flavourful. With its well-balanced weight distribution, it reduces wrist fatigue and gives users a stable, confident grip.

Every detail reflects thoughtful engineering — from the gentle curve of the blade for natural rocking cuts to the wide surface that simplifies transferring chopped ingredients from board to pan. Resistant to staining and easy to maintain, it’s a knife that looks as good after years of use as it does the day it’s unboxed.

Whether you’re carving roast lamb, filleting snapper, or dicing tomatoes for a summer salad, the Kitchen Knife Black Handle 9" offers professional-grade precision, comfort, and control trusted by New Zealand cooks.
