Boucher

A boucher knife is a classic French-style butcher’s knife designed for breaking down large cuts of meat. Its narrow, slightly curved blade provides the leverage and control needed for trimming fat, portioning primals, and making clean, confident cuts along muscle seams. The pointed tip allows precise work around joints, while the forward balance gives it power for heavier tasks. Durable and versatile, the boucher is a staple tool for both butchery and general meat preparation.

C60E

C 0.57–0.65 %, Mn 0.60–0.90 %, Si ≤ 0.40 %, Cr ≤ 0.40 %, Ni ≤ 0.40 %, Mo ≤ 0.10 %, P ≤ 0.03 %, S ≤ 0.035 %.

C60E is a European high-carbon, low-alloy steel used for blades and mechanical parts requiring hardness around 58–62 HRC. It offers good edge formation and moderate wear resistance but limited corrosion protection. Compared with 1095 or SK5, it behaves similarly—easy to sharpen and responsive to a fine polish, though it demands regular care to prevent rust. Suitable for traditional carbon-steel knives, tools, and forgings where toughness and ease of sharpening matter more than stainless behavior.



About Friedr. Herder

Solingen, Germany

Trademarked in 1727 in Solingen, Germany, with a history traceable some 100 years earlier, Friedrich Herder Abr. Sohn is one of the oldest knife makers in the world. Known for its Ace of Spades (♠) trademark, Herder has produced everything from kitchen knives to bayonets. Their classic carbon steel paring and chef knives are prized for steel wuality and hand-ground edges. Herder knives reflect a no-nonsense approach—light, sharp, and built to last—backed by centuries of Solingen tradition. Many models are still hand-finished using old methods, offering simple, high-performing tools with lasting appeal.
