The highly-polished 12C27 steel blade ensures razor-sharp performance and effortless slicing of any food you can throw at it. At the same time it has a thick enough spine to tackle chopping and harder cutting. When designing the blade shape, Helles inspiration was found in mixing the shape of a traditional European chef knife and a Santoku. Combing the qualities of these two kitchen knife cultures, we believe we have found a blade that is just the right size and shape, leaving you with a good balance between control for smaller cuts and size for larger, chopping tasks. As a chef knife, Dele comes with a full flat grind.

The ergonomic handle is inspired by the ample-bellied handles of Helles traditional outdoor knives, and provides a comfortable and secure grip, allowing you to tackle any culinary challenge with confidence. The flat bolster between the handle and blade allows a secure front grip when you are chopping onions or other vegetables. The full-bodied grip on the other hand allows for effortless slicing as well as a comfortable grip when doing heavier cutting. The handle is made in our favorite material curly birch. Birchwood has good anti-bacterial properties, feels great in the hand and as an added feature the individual patterning of the curly birch means that no two knives look alike.
