KNIFE COVER HANDLE

There are thousands of different handle configurations in every commercial kitchen. From cookware to cutlery, griddles to grinders, or mixers to microwave ovens, almost every piece of restaurant equipment and implement has some sort of handle. A handle is a part of, or attachment to, an object that can be moved or used by hand. Handle designs differ greatly by application, sanitary regulations, and safety considerations making it especially important that OEM replacements are used whenever possible.

A knife (plural knives) is a tool with a cutting edge or blade which may or may not be be attached to a handle. Cutting implements, such as those used in mechanical food processors are similarly referred to as knives. The blade edge can be tapered or serrated, or a combination of both. Single-edged knives may have a reverse edge or false edge. These edges are usually serrated and are used to further enhance function. Knife blades can be manufactured from a variety of materials.
