What is the main difference between the MAC Pro Series and MAC Chef Series knives?
The main difference between the MAC Pro Series and MAC Chef Series knives is the blade thickness. The MAC Pro Series features a thicker, harder blade that is better suited for heavy-duty kitchen tasks, while the MAC Chef Series has a slightly thinner and more agile blade that is better suited for everyday cutting. However, the MAC Chef Series is more affordable compared to the premium Pro Series.
What is the weight and balance of MAC Chef Series knives?
MAC Chef Series knives are known for being lightweight and well-balanced, making them comfortable to use for extended periods of time. The full tang and triple-riveted handle design contributes to the overall balance and control.
What is the "Granton edge" feature on MAC Chef Series knives?
The Granton edge, or hollow edge (we title it as a scalloped edge), on MAC Chef Series knives features small dimples or indentations along the blade. This is designed to help food release from the blade more easily during slicing and chopping.
Are MAC Chef Series knives dishwasher safe?
No, MAC recommends hand-washing their Chef Series knives to avoid potential damage from the dishwasher. The high heat and harsh detergents can dull the blades over time.
