1905

EXCLUSIVE • MODERN • UNIQUE

FOR THE LOVE OF COOKING

This knife series reflects our history like no other. It combines the experiences of the past with the knowledge of the present: The year 1778 is the founding year of the Friedr. Dick company in Esslingen. It was in this year that Friedr. Dick realised his vision of a company, resolutely turning a long-cherished dream into reality. Some time later in 1893, Paul Friedr. Dick had the dream of a multi-layer steel that could combine the advantages of carbon steel with the positive properties of stainless steel.

But in the rush of planning for participation in the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago, the preparations for which fully occupied all employees, the idea of three-layer steel temporarily disappeared into a drawer. This ingenious innovation was almost forgotten, but Wilhelm Leuze, great-grandson of the commercial councillor Paul Dick, took up this vision of a chef's knife in the present day and gave life to this product idea.

INNOVATIVE DESIGN

Friedr. Dick already had an eye for beautiful design in 1905 when it developed a knife series with solid collars. These replaced the round rivets that had been known and in use until then. Unfortunately, this early 20th century design has fallen into oblivion, but it experienced a revival in 2010. All knives in the 1905 series have a distinctive handle. Steel rings alternate with the high-quality and resistant plastic without gaps, making the handle a haptic as well as a visual experience. The F. DICK embossing on the knife blade completes the classically modern design of the series.

SHARP BLADE

Yet the knives in the 1905 series can do more than just look beautiful. They also have very sharp quality features: The high-end chrome steel X50CrMoV15 keeps your blade sharp for a long time. This edge retention supports you in your daily use. The blade is honed twice and is therefore particularly sharp.

SAFETY

Safety is also taken care of. A half bolster finger guard protects your fingers, but you can also easily resharpen the cutting edge completely. In the 1905 series, many classic but also special knife shapes are available, leaving nothing to be desired.

Handling your knives

All F. DICK knives deserve special care and attention when it comes to maintenance. Never clean your knife in the dishwasher. Ideally, you should clean the knife immediately after use with clear water and then dry it with a soft cloth.
