F.Dick VIVUM Santoku Knife Kullenschliff Birch 7"

The unique power of nature combined in a new knife series – VIVUM. These unique Santoku knives combine a natural appear-ance with extreme sharpness: an elegant and specially shaped birch wood handle comes together with the highest quality knife steel and a modern blade design. A design that has now been honoured at one of the world's most prestigious design competitions - the Red Dot Award 2024.

This knife is ideal for cutting meats, fruits and vegetables. It is characterized by a thin blade with a v-shaped cutting edge. The fluted edge creates air cushions that reduce the adhesion of food to the blade.

The birch stands for life, strength, durability and reliability. It is not only the trunk that is easy to recognize but also its very special wood grains, which make every VIVUM handle unique. No two handles are the same. The new handle shapes not only look impressive but also sit snugly in your hand. The design is clear and expressive. The wood feels natural and lies comfortable in the hand.

The VIVUM series stands for manual craftsmanship instead of serial uniformity. As a unique piece, each knife is finished by hand by our experienced staff. We use a special high-alloy steel for the VIVUM series because the steel quality significantly contributes to a sharp cutting experience. This steel offers excellent cutting performance, exceptional hardness and good corrosion resistance. During the hardening process, the blade is hardened under protective gas at 1,100 °C. The blades are then ice tempered down to -197° C to ensure the necessary flexibility and resilience of the knives and to optimise the material structure. This results in an optimal hardness of 58 HRC. The knives are therefore extremely sharp and ready for use in kitchens and on barbecues around the world.
