Icel Salmon Round/Slicing Knife 43cm flexible blade has a long, narrow and flexible blade that cuts extremely close to a spine, bone or other hard surfaces. The alternating kullenschliffs (or hollows) on each side of the knife reduce drag and prevent items from sticking to the blade.
Built for commercial application, Icel Salmon knives are die-cut from a single billet of fine German (*X50 CrM oV15) stainless steel alloy and are easy to resharpen.

*X50 CrMO V15
German steel. Very stain resistant. Other than that not much to speak of. The cryptic X50CrMoV15 stands for 0.5% carbon, the other 15% is composed of 14% or 14.5% of Cr, some Mo and V. 0.5% C content means, by definition X50CrMoV15 isn't a high carbon steel, despite of some marketing claims. In fact it has less C content compared to 440C steel. However, it's plenty tough and resists corrosion well. If you don't want to bother maintaining your knives this is a good choice. Except for the low edge holding ability of course. In the end, you end up sharpening it a lot more often, so low maintenance statement is really arguable. Used by Wusthof, Victorinix and others in their high end knives.
