Cordova 5″ Chefs Knife

Description

Cordova Cutlery is a purpose-driven kitchen line built for precision, control, and uncompromising performance. Designed for professional kitchens and serious home cooks alike, each knife reflects a balance of refined ergonomics, premium materials, and clean, functional aesthetics.

The 5″ cutting edge knife in the Cordova collection is engineered for detailed, close-control tasks where accuracy matters most. Crafted from AEB-L stainless steel and heat treated to a precise 61 Rc, the blade delivers exceptional edge stability, fine grain structure, and corrosion resistance—allowing it to take a razor-sharp edge while maintaining durability through frequent, demanding use. The hollow ground bevel minimizes cutting resistance, providing effortless slicing and excellent food release, particularly when working with smaller ingredients and precision cuts.

With its shorter blade length, the 5″ knife excels at in-hand work, trimming, peeling, and fine prep where maneuverability and tip control are critical. The compact profile offers superior agility without sacrificing cutting performance, making it an essential tool for detailed kitchen tasks.

The handle is designed to sit flush with the blade for a seamless feel and enhanced control during extended use. Carefully contoured for comfort and balance, it is finished in aesthetically pleasing, modern color combinations that elevate both performance and presentation.

Cordova Cutlery delivers professional-grade tools built for precision, consistency, and long-term reliability—designed to perform, crafted to endure.
