Powerful enough to break Parmesan straight from the wheel. Curved enough to rock-chop herbs with speed and control. This compact, wide-bladed knife is built for cooks who want one tool that handles both fine herb work and serious cheese tasks without hesitation.
1905 Series – The Exclusives.
That is how FRIEDRICH DICK describes this iconic knife line. Inspired by Art Nouveau at the turn of the 20th century, the 1905 Series replaces traditional rivets with distinctive stainless steel ferrules. The result is a hygienic, gap-free handle construction permanently bonded to the high-performance POM handle material, offering durability, comfort, and easy cleaning in professional kitchens and ambitious home setups alike.
Each blade is forged from proven X50CrMoV15 stainless steel, finely ground, polished, and carefully balanced. The final sharpening is done by hand, while laser inspection ensures consistent cutting geometry. Thanks to the semi-bolster design, the full length of the edge can be resharpened easily, extending the life of the knife and reducing unnecessary weight at the heel.
Why choose this herb and Parmesan knife? Because it delivers speed in herb prep, stability for hard cheese, and the kind of control that makes repetitive kitchen work faster, cleaner, and more satisfying. Ideal for parsley, basil, chives, garlic, aromatics, and firm cheeses, especially Parmesan and aged hard cheese varieties.
If you are looking for a forged German kitchen knife that combines classic design, professional performance, and everyday durability, this 12 cm herb and Parmesan knife from the DICK 1905 Series is a reliable, long-term investment for any serious kitchen.
