At this price it's a joke! 36 EURO !!!!! The knife is actually no more than a thin piece of metal! 13 cm plate! The top is max. 1.1 mm thick! Of course you can cut it - that goes with any ground "Blech!" So far, we use knives by two brothers / Kingfisher domestic and really have a proper "Sword!" This flap part is a joke! No purchase recommendation! At that price, certainly not!
