Perfect for performing precise and powerful work in the kitchen, no matter the task, the 8” Cook’s Knife is versatile and indispensable. The Performer is made even more so with the unique and highly advanced DLC (Diamond-Like-Carbon) coating used in both the aviation and motorsport industries that results in the beautiful black blade as well as almost doubling the surface strength from 58° to 104° HRC without the steel becoming brittle.

Precise, pointed, and perfect for peeling and slicing small ingredients, the Performer Paring Knife has a slim blade complemented by a unique handle design for ultimate control. The knives in the Performer series feature an ergonomic polyamide handle reinforced with a 15% fiberglass content for long-lasting durability and Hexagon Power Grip—an anti-slip honeycomb design that delivers a secure and controlled grip, even when wet. 

Whether rhythmically chopping herbs or precisely slicing through proteins, the Performer Santoku elegantly pairs the efficiency and lightness of Japanese knives with the quality and strength of German steel. The hollow ground edge allows for food to fall effortlessly away from the blade rather than sticking, adding substance as well as style. The non-reflective coating creates a blade that is well protected against scratches and acids. 

Smaller, yet just as mighty, the 6” blade of the Performer Cook’s Knife is precision-forged from a single piece of high carbon stainless steel and excels at mincing and slicing herbs, produce and meats. The size lends itself to detail work and petite hands. As well as being perfectly balanced and razor-sharp thanks to Precision Edge Technology (PETech), the blades of the series feature an oversize stylized trident logo lasered on the side.
