Why this chefs knive earns its place
The Hygiplas Chef Knife in white is the pocket knife of the professional kitchen. At 390mm overall (with a 15.5cm blade), it bridges the gap between paring and full-size chef knives—small enough to handle detail work, robust enough for everyday prep. The stainless steel blade is forged by stamping, which gives you a sharp edge that holds through heavy use without the weight and maintenance of a heavier forged blade.
Colour coding is baked into this design: the white handle immediately signals vegetable or dairy work to anyone following your hygiene protocols. It's made for speed; the lightweight construction means less fatigue through a long service, and the compact size lets you work in tight spaces without the bulk of a full chef knife. The blade punches above its weight class for a stamped construction—it slices cleanly through vegetables, meats, and dairy without requiring constant honing.
Practicality is absolute. This knife is dishwasher safe, which means it doesn't demand hand-washing protocol and can keep pace with your prep team's rhythm. The handle is engineered to be dishwasher proof, resisting water damage and maintaining grip even after repeated cycles. At 0.12 kg, it's light enough to carry across the station multiple times without hands tiring.
