FIRST CLASS always means hand wash


A universal knife for cutting fish, meat and vegetables. A guard is built into the underside of the handle to ensure that fingers remain securely on the handle and do not slip forwards. The same model is also available with a 21 cm blade.
FIRST CLASS has a classically austere, elegant appearance with an angled stainless steel end cap. The balance provides a well-balanced hand position, which is also a pleasure for large hands when working in the kitchen. A series made by hand and drop-forged in one piece. The blade surface is only minimally satin-finished to achieve a low coefficient of friction. Polyoxymethylene handle material ensures a highly durable, abrasion and heat resistant performance. Combined with the steel rivets, this series goes perfectly with fashion by Jil Sander, Giorgio Armani and EICHENLAUB cutlery. 
Does the scientific name "Mesocricetus auratus" mean anything to you? Mouse-like burrowers that eat everything. And hibernate. Do you know someone like that? Do we have the same relationship? 
Beyond that, however, GOLDHAMSTER, as they are called in German, was a legend when it came to top-quality chef's knives. Eberhard Schaaf was responsible for this success, which is still remembered by knife enthusiasts. Today, FIRST CLASS operates under the name FELIX ZEPTER; until 2012, the name SOLICUT was used. Solingen Cutlery, which means nothing other than cutlery from Solingen. This place is allowed to use the term "city of blades" as part of its name, which identifies it worldwide as one of the centerpieces for sharp knives. Nobody will ever let this ZEPTER out of their hands again.
