R 1 660,00
The Robert Herder Windmill Knife K0 is a compact, highly precise bird's beak paring knife engineered specifically for the intricate peeling, touring, and shaping of fruits and vegetables.
Available in both high-carbon and stainless chrome-molybdenum-vanadium steel (60 HRC), the deeply curved blade is hand-finished with the traditional "Solingen thin grind" for exceptional, long-lasting sharpness.
Its extended, gracefully rounded handle—offered in premium natural woods or durable POM plastic—is secured with four rivets to provide perfect balance, generous hand clearance, and ergonomic comfort during intensive prep work.
Weighing roughly 30g with an overall length of 18 cm, this nimble German-made tool effortlessly removes blemishes and minimizes food waste, requiring only careful hand-washing and occasional oiling to maintain its peak condition.

Reviews
The knife is very well-made, fits comfortably in the hand, and makes peeling incredibly easy. The blade extends all the way to the end of the handle, is ground thin, and glides smoothly through the cut thanks to its blue-peened surface. The edge should definitely be protected from impacts (knife block or the included cardboard sheath). The carbon steel has excellent edge retention but requires more care as it is not stainless and therefore NOT dishwasher safe. After use, it should be cleaned and dried immediately to prevent tarnishing and rust. I also coat the blade with a thin film of cooking oil after drying as a rust preventative. So far, I am extremely satisfied.
Great knife for cutting vegetables in the hand. Best knife I've had in a while.
A really good knife with a long handle, ideal for large hands, and it cuts beautifully.
