The fully forged construction with a full tang ensures outstanding strength, perfect balance and exceptional durability. The POM (polyoxymethylene) handle, secured with robust rivets, is ergonomic, hygienic and highly resistant to wear, providing a secure and comfortable grip even during intensive professional use. Compared with the 1905 series, distinguished by its iconic steel rings, the Premier Plus series features a clean, functional design, making it the ideal choice for chefs seeking reliability, comfort and outstanding performance in every preparation.

The F. Dick Premier Plus series is designed for professional chefs, restaurants, hotels, catering companies, culinary schools and demanding home cooks looking for a reliable knife for everyday intensive use. It is particularly suitable for professionals who prioritise consistency, durability and comfort over decorative features, making it one of the most versatile collections in the F. Dick catalogue.

The F. Dick Premier Plus series performs exceptionally well across virtually every kitchen preparation, including meat, fish, vegetables, herbs and delicatessen products. Compared with the lightweight Vivum series, Premier Plus provides a stronger and more substantial cutting feel, while offering greater versatility than the meat-oriented 1893 collection.

Regular maintenance using a professional F. Dick sharpening steel, hand washing, immediate drying and proper storage on magnetic racks or knife blocks will preserve the outstanding cutting performance of the Premier Plus series for many years.
