Rachael Ray on the Füri™ RR ‘Coppertail’

After years of using traditional knives, popular television cook Rachael Ray has recently upgraded to new technology. The Füri® RR ‘Coppertail™’ knives are an upgrade from the original Füri® East/West knives that made Füri famous among the leading chefs of the world: see www.furitechnics.com/articles for international press coverage. Rachael says: “I love the sharpness and scalloped edge of a Santoku blade – it is the best blade available for slicing through a tomato. However, a traditional Santoku knife has a very straight edge, which makes it difficult to use in a rocking and sliding motion, as with most traditional chef’s knives. The Füri RR East/West features both a sharp, scalloped Santoku blade . . . and a rounded edge.” “Since I spend more time with a chef’s knife in hand than not . . . I need a handle that is easy to hold and doesn't slip. The Füri RR features a unique “reverse wedge” shaped handle which reduces the amount of squeeze needed and keeps my hand from getting fatigued.” “The Füri RR Coppertail is the ONLY knife I’ve seen that features a counter-balancing copper insert in the handle. During years of sharpening and honing any blade, metal is removed from the blade edge, thereby reducing the weight of the blade and throwing off the balance of the blade to handle. What makes the Füri RR Coppertail different from other knives, is that the copper insert in the handle can be shaved down to reduce the weight of the handle and rebalance the knife over time!”

Rachael loves her Füri East/West knives!
