The Mattia Borrani Chef's Knife Toscano is among the finest kitchen knives ever made. The thin, broad flat ground blade makes quick and clean cuts. It's got a gentle curve to make rocking cuts a cinch. The handle is made of carbon fiber with a green burl inlay.
Did you know Mattia Borrani Cutlery will sharpen this knife for free? The only catch is that you've gotta arrange the round trip ticket. As a general rule with fine cutlery, if you regularly hone the blade you'll be given the gift of an always keen edge. It's actually pretty fun and highly satisfying.
