These impressive blades undergo a thorough oil-quenching process resulting in remarkable corrosion resistance. With an average Rockwell hardness of 60, these strong blades deliver exceptional versatility and durability with impressive edge retention. Acting as an extension of the hand, the innovative curved bolster supports the “pinch grip”, for slicing with improved precision, safety, and comfort. The triplerivet, contoured handle is adorned with a stainless-steel endcap and provides a smooth, well-balanced feel in the hand.
