SHOP CASE KNIVESBuilt for control and versatility, the Cangshan Helena Series 5" Round Tip Serrated Utility Knife is the tool you’ll reach for every day. Whether you're slicing bagels, halving sandwiches, or working through tough-skinned produce, this knife delivers clean, precise cuts without crushing or tearing. The serrated edge is designed to bite through crusty exteriors and delicate interiors with minimal pressure, making it a go-to for everything from cured meats to ripe tomatoes.
At the core of this knife is a 5" high-performance blade forged from German X50CrMoV15 stainless steel—known for its fine grain, excellent corrosion resistance, and ability to hold a sharp edge. Each blade is hand-sharpened to a precise 16-degree angle and undergoes Cangshan’s ULTRA6 heat treatment process, achieving a Rockwell hardness of 58 ±2. This results in a blade that’s not just razor-sharp but also built to stay that way through regular use.
The full tang construction runs through the length of the handle, providing strength and balance for confident, controlled handling. A slim semi-bolster offers additional support at the pinch grip without adding bulk, allowing for full-edge sharpening and a lighter feel in the hand.
The black handle is crafted from durable polyoxymethylene (POM), a high-density synthetic material known for its strength, moisture resistance, and comfort. Ergonomically contoured, the handle fits naturally in the hand and promotes fatigue-free cutting. Two stain-resistant stainless steel rivets fasten the handle securely to the tang, ensuring lasting durability and a clean, modern look.
Measuring just five inches, this serrated utility knife strikes the perfect balance between agility and function. It’s small enough for finesse work but strong enough to handle more demanding slicing. Compact, precise, and ready for any kitchen task, it’s the utility knife that proves just how versatile one blade can be. Order it today from SMKW!
