DUO Butcher

Knives from the Pirge DUO Butcher series made of stainless steel X50CrMoV15 are designed for professional use as well as for everyday home use. The blade hardness reaches 56 HRC and is ground at an angle of 20 degrees. The knife shapes have been designed by professionals with many years of experience. Boning, cutting and skinning - nothing will be a problem for these knives. The warranty on these knives is 5 years and covers non-mechanical damage and manufacturing defects.

The handle of the PIRGE DUO professional knives is ergonomic, comfortable and soft for long-term use. The core of the handle is made of injection molded polypropylene (PPC), which is resistant to temperatures up to 120 degrees Celsius and allows a permanent and stable connection between the blade and the handle. The surface is injection moulded thermoplastic softened rubber (TPE) which is absolutely non-slip. This special non-slip handle prevents the knife from slipping when wet or greasy (also effective when wearing gloves). The soft rubberized handle does not cause blisters, thus allowing easy and fatigue-free work. The colour of the handle in the food industry specifies the knives according to the ingredients to be cut. This allows for better hygienic control of the products being sliced, all based on European HACCP standards.

Behind the acronym HACCP is the English name Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point, translated as Hazard Analysis and Identification of Critical Control Points. It is a system that was developed in cooperation with NASA. It was voluntary for food producers, but the results after its introduction in companies were so favourable and its use universal that it became mandatory in 2004. It is now mandatory for the production, processing, storage, handling, transport and sale of food to prevent potential health hazards. Using the developed HACCP system, risks are analysed for each activity and preventive measures are implemented and controlled, with the aim of achieving quality and safe food throughout the chain from the farmer to the final consumer. The use of colour-coded tools prevents, among other things, cross-contamination with micro-organisms and allergens between different types of food. The Pirge DUO Butcher knives are available in 4 different colours (red, blue, green, yellow)

What steel are the Duo knives made of?The knives are made of high quality X50CrMoV15 steel

Can I sharpen my knife at home?Yes, you will find everything you need to sharpen your knives at home in the knife sharpening section of our shop.
Can I wash my knives in the dishwasher?We do not recommend it. Steel with a high carbon content can oxidise in the dishwasher due to the action of chemicals. In addition, hot water and pressure can damage the blade. It is therefore better to wash the knives by hand.
Are the Duo knives suitable for slaughtering animals?Yes, thanks to the non-slip plastic handle they do not slip even when in contact with blood or fat. The knives are safe, ergonomic and provide high performance, making them suitable for this activity.
