48,86 €This product is intended for use only by adults with knowledge and experience in handling sharp cutting tools. Improper use of the knife can result in serious injuries. The blade is extremely sharp and can easily cut through skin and tissue; therefore, extra caution should always be exercised while cutting, and hands should be kept away from the cutting edge. To prevent the knife from slipping, it is recommended to cut on a stable, non-slip surface and avoid excessive force, which may cause uncontrolled blade movement.
Leaving the knife on the edge of a table, countertop, or in easily accessible places—especially where children are present—poses a significant safety risk. The knife should always be properly secured after use, ideally by placing it on a stable surface or storing it in designated knife blocks, protective sheaths, or magnetic strips. The knife should never be used for tasks it is not designed for, such as opening cans or prying objects, as this can damage the tool and lead to dangerous accidents.
A dull blade increases the risk of injury, as it requires more force and is more likely to slip from the material being cut. Therefore, it is essential to sharpen the knife regularly to maintain optimal sharpness. Additionally, proper cleaning and drying of the knife are necessary to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. Periodic inspection of the handle and blade is recommended to check for cracks, chips, or looseness. If any damage is detected, the knife should be repaired or replaced immediately.
When using the knife, focus solely on the task at hand—avoid talking on the phone, watching television, or other distractions while cutting. Ensure proper lighting in the workspace for better visibility and control. Please note that some countries or regions have laws restricting the ownership and carrying of knives. Before purchasing or using this knife, verify that its use is legal in your location according to applicable regulations.
Following these safety guidelines will help ensure safe and effective knife use, minimizing the risk of accidents and extending the lifespan of the tool.
Professional Forged Ham Slicing Granton Edge Black Polymer, Polished X30Cr13 is a tool designed for slicing ham and delicate meats into even, thin slices. Created by the Portuguese brand MAM – Filmam, Lda., it combines classic forging with modern cutting technology, making it the perfect choice for chefs looking for precision and comfort. The narrow, flexible blade is made of corrosion-resistant X30Cr13 steel and features Granton Edge indentations that reduce resistance and prevent thinly sliced pieces from sticking. The knife is ideal for working with Parma ham, roast beef, and roasted meats. The POM polymer handle is ergonomically shaped for stability and comfort even during prolonged use. The whole knife combines lightness with durability and functionality, creating a high-class knife for tasks requiring precision and aesthetic presentation.
X30Cr13 is a martensitic chrome steel with a nominal chemical composition of approximately 0.30% carbon (C) and 13% chromium (Cr). The addition of chromium in this amount provides significant corrosion and rust resistance in many environments. The higher carbon content compared to some other stainless steels translates into good hardness (typically in the range of 50-55 HRC after appropriate heat treatment) and the ability to maintain sharpness. It is widely used for the manufacture of knives (especially kitchen and table knives), surgical instruments, pump components, and other applications requiring corrosion resistance and moderate mechanical strength.
Granton Edge (also known as dimpled blade) is a distinctive oval or elongated indentation milled alternately on both sides of the blade, just above the cutting edge. Its main advantage is friction reduction – the indentations create air pockets, reducing food (e.g., meat, fish, cheese, vegetables) sticking to the blade. This facilitates smooth cutting of thin, even slices (e.g., salmon, roast meat) with less effort. The name comes from Granton Knifemakers of Sheffield, who patented the design in 1928, although the term is now used generically. The Granton edge is often found on Santoku knives, slicing knives, and some chef's knives. It is important not to confuse it with a serrated blade, which has teeth on the cutting edge itself – the Granton edge is indentations on the side of the blade with a smooth cutting edge.
Blade - a forged blade made of polished X30Cr13 stainless steel, known for its excellent balance between hardness and corrosion resistance, has been used. Its thin, slender profile allows for long, smooth cuts, which translates into even and aesthetically pleasing portions. The key feature is the Granton Edge system – evenly spaced indentations on both sides of the blade that create a thin layer of air between the blade and the meat being cut. The result is less friction, no sticking, and cleaner cutting of delicate slices. The forged construction increases the rigidity of the blade and ensures better balance of the tool, which facilitates fast work and increases precision when portioning. This solution is for people who expect not only functionality from a knife, but also full control over the cut and high work culture.
Handle - made of durable POM plastic, known for its resistance to abrasion, moisture and contact with chemicals. Thanks to its closed, smooth design, the handle remains easy to clean and safe to use, even under intensive use. Three stainless steel rivets ensure a durable connection to the blade, eliminating the risk of loosening even under prolonged pressure. The shape of the handle fits the hand, supporting a secure grip and reducing fatigue during repetitive movements. It is a lightweight, well-balanced component which, together with the forged blade, creates a professional tool for precise cutting of meat – indispensable in restaurant and catering kitchens, and at the same time perfect for demanding home use.
