the BA Chef Knife 8in is the most popular "standard" size for home and professional kitchens, offering a versatile balance between maneuverability and cutting power.

Key Specifications & Features

Blade Length: 8 inches (approx. 20 cm). This is the industry-standard length for a primary chef's knife, ideal for over 90% of daily kitchen tasks including dicing onions, slicing meat, and mincing herbs.
Material: Crafted from high-carbon stainless steel. This 2026 model is designed to be rust-resistant while maintaining a sharp edge longer than standard stainless steel.
PVC Sleeve: Every knife comes with a protective PVC sleeve. This allows for safe storage in kitchen drawers, preventing accidental cuts and protecting the blade from being dulled by other utensils.
Handle: Features a textured, ergonomic non-slip handle. It is designed to provide a secure grip and reduce wrist strain during long sessions of meal preparation.
Versatility: The 8-inch blade is significantly easier to control for precision tasks than the 10-inch version, making it the preferred choice for general home use.

Maintenance & Care

Cleaning: To maintain the blade's sharpness and prevent spotting, hand washing and immediate drying are strongly recommended.
Dishwasher Warning: Avoid putting this knife in the dishwasher, as the high-pressure water and harsh detergents can cause the blade to dull prematurely and may damage the handle material.
Storage: Always store the knife inside its PVC sleeve when not in use to maintain edge geometry and ensure kitchen safety.
