Renkei (連携) is a Japanese term that means collaboration, coordination, or connection. It is used to express the idea of working together, in close cooperation, to achieve a common goal or to create synergies between different people or organizations.

This project, born from the collaboration between Coltelleria Collini in Busto Arsizio and Coltelleria Due Cigni in Maniago, is an excellent example of synergy between two Italian companies specializing in the world of cutlery.

The Japanese VG10 steel used in this project, laminated to 67 layers and produced by Takefu Steel, is renowned for its extraordinary properties of strength, durability, and the ability to maintain a prolonged sharpness over time. These characteristics make the steel ideal for the production of high-quality knives.

The 67-layer lamination technique gives the steel superior strength and flexibility compared to traditional steels. Additionally, the use of this Japanese steel gives the knives a distinctive and elegant design, with a particular wave pattern on the surface of the blade that forms during the manufacturing process.

The collaboration between Coltelleria Collini and Coltelleria Due Cigni highlights how the combination of skills and traditions of two Italian entities can lead to the creation of high-quality products, capable of competing with the best kitchen knives on the international market.

Black, sharp and unsurpassed, a series with a unique design that meets pure dynamism.
The WÜSTHOF Performer Knife series proves its worth with every use: exceptional quality for very high performance. The ultra-hard blade, coated in diamond-like carbon (DLC) guarantees low friction and perfect sliding of the blade during cutting. The non-slip honeycomb structure of the Hexagon Power Grip guarantees extreme control. This knife will win you over for a lifetime!

The cut of the Performer knives flows through the food with almost no friction. Thanks to the particularly low friction, the non-stick properties of the diamond-like coating and the lotus effect of the black surface, the particles simply roll off the blade. Freshly cut pieces of food, such as slices of an onion, slip away: an ideal situation when speed and precision are required in moments of intense activity in the kitchen.

Thanks to the hydrophobic effect, all liquids flow away, including citrus acids, as well as fats or starches from potatoes.
The DLC was originally employed for the extreme conditions of space travel and motorsports; WÜSTHOF is the first knife manufacturer in the world to use this technology on a fully forged knife.
USE: vegetables, meat, fish
FEATURES:

- Diamond-like carbon coating increases surface hardness to 104 Rockwells
- Thanks to this coating, the knife glides effortlessly through the food
- Newly developed Hexagon Power Grip with anti-slip honeycomb structure
- Forged from a single piece of WÜSTHOF stainless steel
- Forged in Solingen, Germany
DIMENSIONS:

- Blade length 17 cm
- Total length 30.5 cm
- Weight: 172 gr.

Diamond-like carbon coated blade for extreme performance.

The diamond-like carbon (DLC) coated blade, being extremely hard and durable, is the highest quality in the knife market. The almost magical black coating increases the surface hardness of WÜSTHOF steel from 58 to a unique 104 Rockwell.

For connoisseurs, this means a significant benefit in terms of performance: its extreme robustness makes it practically immune to adverse external effects and the diamond surface is also extremely heat resistant.

The DLC was originally developed for the extreme conditions of space travel and motorsports; WÜSTHOF is the first knife manufacturer in the world to use this technology on a fully forged knife with holder.

FORM AND FUNCTION
The Premana Professional line was created by analyzing and solving, in every detail, the problems faced by the most attentive professional who uses these working tools on a daily basis. By making the green knives of the Premana Professional line, Coltellerie Sanelli S.r.l. has significantly improved the concept of safety, reliability, and hygiene in a decisive way, paying attention not only to the hardness, flexibility and shearing power of the blades, but also to the ergonomic shape of the handle.

THE BLADES.
The convex shape of the blade provides effective support when considerable effort is required on the part of the user and is also characterized by: high hardness (54-56 HRC), good flexibility, high shearing power, long edge life, edge shape especially designed for professional use, and excellent ease of resharpening.

HANDLES.
Exclusive ergonomic design of the handle resulting from special studies carried out at qualified University Institutes (research unit called EPM: Ergonomics of Posture and Movement at the Polytechnic University of Milan) and validated by computerized experimental tests.

ANTIBACTERIAL PROTECTION
Sanelli and Biomaster have developed permanent antibacterial protection for the handles of Premana line knives through the use of silver ions.
Biomaster is a silver ion-based, inorganic additive suitable for imparting antibacterial characteristics to plastics that safely inhibits microbial growth from the first few minutes, reaching almost total inhibition within 24 hours. Once incorporated into a product, Biomaster becomes an integral part of it providing safe, effective and inexhaustible antimicrobial protection.
Laboratory tests have shown that Biomaster, incorporated into the handles of Sanelli Premana Professional Line knives, is effective in the permanent microbiological eradication of Escherichia Coli and Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) to the extent of 99.7 percent, obtaining ISO22196:20111 certification.

The Shun Pro Sho series focuses exclusively on blades with asymmetrical sharpening, that is, traditional Japanese shapes. Due to the high quality of workmanship and materials, this series is particularly suitable for intensive professional use.

The knife's elegant design masterfully combines classic Japanese design language with Western components.

Maintenance

Proper care increases the life of the knife, making it easier and safer to work with; it also reduces wire wear.

Hand washing is preferable (using dishwashing detergent and a soft sponge); in the case of dishwashing, where permitted, there are a couple of tips to follow:
- be sure to arrange the knives so that they do not hit other objects and damage the wire;
- in any case, before being washed in the machine, it is best to rinse the knives under running water to remove remnants of what you cut, especially substances that can be highly corrosive (e.g., fats, vinegar, fruit juices).

The knives we sell, are checked and, if necessary, further sharpened, in order to ensure their perfect, even professional, use.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance prolongs the life of the knife, makes work easier and safer and reduces the consumption of the wire. Some advices:

- Pay attention that the knives placed in the dishwasher bump other objects; the blades could be damaged.

- Knives guaranteed for dishwashers that are not immediately washed in the machine should be rinsed under the water tap to remove the remains of highly corrosive foods (fats, vinegar, fruit juices).

- Make sure if the knives no longer cut perfectly, have them rectified or sharpened by professionals in the sector.

The WUSTHOF knives sold by us are personally checked and further sharpened, in order to guarantee you the certainty of an excellent purchase.
