Designer Chifen Chenf created a new knife with a solid walnut blade in collaboration with Maison Milan. This new wooden knife was created to change the idea of a traditional food cutting tool. Made with a cast-iron handle, this knife stands upright, and is used to effortlessly grind salt, pepper, nuts and spices. Additionally, the blade is sharp enough to easily cut through lettuce and other vegetables easily.
This sleek design features an easy grip handle, and was made to fit perfectly in any hand. The standout design is a modern, aesthetically pleasing kitchen innovation that was made to transform everyday cooking. This knife made with a solid walnut blade is even safe for children to use since there is no actual blade.
