Roselli R730 Chinese Chef Knife

The R730 features a substantial 3 mm blade thickness and a 400 g weight, which provides the necessary heft to power through dense produce like squash or pumpkin without requiring excessive force.

Carbon steel is reactive, so it is essential to hand-wash and dry the blade immediately after every use. We recommend applying a light coat of food-safe mineral oil to the blade if you plan to store it for an extended period.

No, the handle is treated with linseed oil, which provides a natural, textured grip that remains secure even when your hands are damp or greasy during food preparation.

The included rack is a functional storage solution designed to hold the knife securely, but it is not magnetic. It is crafted from the same high-quality birch as the handle to provide a cohesive, aesthetic display for your kitchen.

Because the handle is made from natural curly birch, every knife features unique grain patterns and color variations. You should expect your specific piece to have its own distinct character.

With a hardness of approximately 60 HRC, this carbon steel blade offers excellent edge retention. While frequency depends on your usage, the steel is relatively easy to hone and sharpen when you eventually notice a decrease in performance.
