The Messermeister Custom 6 Inch Utility Knife is a go-to for all of your tasks in the kitchen. With a fine edge, this traditional style utility knife is one of the most frequently used knives in the kitchen. A favorite for prep, peeling and slicing and fruits and vegetables as well as slicing meats and cheeses.
Features
Modular in design, so that you can personalize your handle to make your favorite knife one-of-a-kind.
The cold rolled X50 German stainless steel blades are heat treated to achieve 58 Rockwell hardness.
A revolutionary ceramic stonewash finish allows for smoother cutting and increased stain resistance.
The 3-step hand stropped 15° edge on this blade is sharp, efficient and resilient.
The Custom base model handle is precision milled from an incredibly tough material made of reclaimed canvas and natural non-phenolic resin. It has a natural subtle texture for a more secure grip.
The new handle design has a ramped bolster for improved grip ergonomics, and it is cambered for optimal control.
The interchangeable torx rivets are titanium coated with a brass color and a contrasting silver collar set.
Handcrafted in the historic cutlery capital of Solingen, Germany.
Care
Hand-wash with warm water and a mild detergent; rinse and dry immediately.
Do not place in dishwasher.
Avoid cleaners containing bleach or citrus extracts.
What more can be said?! This knife is just as good as every other Messermeister I have. The knife made short work of these onions and tomatoes. It is very sharp, well balanced and looks great with the optional handles and hardware!

Opposite review as the one I submitted for the Meridian Elite 6 Inch Utility Knife. This knife has a belly to the blade and thus I don't have knuckle contact with the board like I am having with the Meridian Elite. It is obviously a lower quality than the Meridian as I was expecting, but because of the blade I find myself reaching for this one 10:1 over the Meridian. Would love to see a curved blade on the Meridian Elite 6 Inch Utility Knife like on this Custom 6-inch Utility Knife.

This knife was a exciting find. Great ergos, fantastic useful blade shape, just enough heel for finger clearance. Very sharp out of the box with a nicely polished edge bevel that needed nothing. nice handle too. I think the "custom" is the best offering from this company!

The best mix of a high-level culinary tool with a masculine look usually only found in foldable pocket knifes. These custom knifes are so amazing that I'm spending way too much time in the kitchen that I should.
