KAI Utility Knife 15 cm Michel Bras bk-0002

For everyone who loves cooking: refined polished sharpness, an effortless feel in the hand, and sophisticated beauty. These are the defining characteristics of this knife collection designed by Michel Bras. The goal of this renowned chef was to achieve a perfect fusion of beauty and practicality, aesthetics and gastronomy. Michel Bras knives are the ideal companions for all who are passionate about culinary creativity.

The Michel Bras series is an exclusive line with a unique design featuring Titanium coating, created in close collaboration with Michel Bras himself.

Every shape and detail has been carefully reimagined. Each form is slightly different from the usual knife silhouettes, resulting in pieces that are truly distinctive.

The utility knife is a miniature of the chef's knife. It can be used for meat, fish, vegetables, and even fruits, while its smaller size and shorter blade make it easier to maneuver. Ideal for small portions, but also for carving and garnishing.
