How to use the professional 'Pinch Grip' technique

Orient knives have been ergonomically designed with comfort and cutting performance in mind.

Our knives allow you to utilise the professional choice ‘pinch grip’, giving you greater control and cutting performance.

Pick up the knife with your dominant hand. Open your hand and let the knife balance in the palm of your hand with your hand open.
