Anolon Advanced 6-Inch Utility Knife

Anolon Advanced blades are forged from high-quality German carbon steel that resists rust and food stains. The stainless steel is ice-hardened for additional strength and longer edge retention. Blades are then polished with glass to produce an edge that is meant to be simultaneously sharp but smoother to the touch. Full tangs and a counter balance cap on the Advanced Collection cutlery provide superior balance, while a rounded blade spine adds more comfort during extended periods of prepping. Ergonomically-shaped handles with cushioned non-slip Santoprene padding offer a comfortable, secure grip--even when cutting with wet hands.

This utility knife comes with a tiny plastic tip to safely cover its point while resting on the cutting board between chopping tasks. A larger plastic sheath is also included to protect the blade during in-drawer storage. Anolon guarantees this cutlery under a lifetime limited warranty and, for proper maintenance, recommends hand washing and immediately drying knives. --Cristina Vaamonde
