The **Messermeister Oliva Luxe paring knife 12 cm** is a stylish and practical kitchen knife. The knife is very lightweight, so you have lots of control over the blade, making it perfect for small, precise cutting jobs in the kitchen. It's the perfect for cutting or peeling fruit or small vegetables.

## Oliva Luxe blade: hand polished

The knives are forged in the traditional way from one piece of German 1.4116 stainless steel. The steel is hardened to a hardness of around 58 HRC. As a result, the knife retains its sharpness for a long time when used correctly. Polishing a knife is where many manufacturers cut back to keep the knife affordable. That's where Messermeister excels with this collection. Each blade is polished by hand on a fabric wheel. This gives the knife the sharpest possible edge, so it's razor-sharp straight out of the box.

## Oliva Luxe handle: sophisticated olive wood

The handle of this knife is made from Mediterranean olive wood. The light brown wood has a wild pattern with dark brown lines. With its rounded corners, the handle lies comfortably in hand. Since olive wood is a natural product, the handle for each knife is unique! Besides the fact that olive wood looks beautiful, it is also a very durable type of wood. Because olive trees grow very slowly, the wood has a high density. Olive is an oil-rich wood. This makes the wood naturally water-repellent. Olive wood is also very slow to develop stains and discolourations from food. To keep the handle beautiful for as long as possible and avoid damaging it, it's important not to put the knife in the dishwasher. Wash the knives by hand after use and dry them immediately.

## Messermeister Oliva Luxe: German quality in an Italian jacket

The Messermeister Oliva Luxe kitchen knives live up to their name. Thanks to the razor-sharp blade, olive wood handle and excellent finish, these kitchen knives are both functional and luxurious. The kitchen knives are made and finished by hand in Solingen, Germany. An Oliva Luxe kitchen knife is more than just a tool. It is a luxurious and prominent element in your kitchen.
