Frequently asked questions

1.What kind of steel is used?
The Extreme series uses powder steel。The so-called powder steel,It is made through powder metallurgy technology,Compared to other steels,Powder steel has stronger toughness and higher wear resistance,It is a type of steel with high metal fatigue resistance。The kitchen knife is made of oriented powder steelZDF-905,Independently developed heat treatment process,Make the blade hardness reach60HRC±2(Depending on different surface treatment processes, there may be differences),Maintain good hardness、Wear resistance、toughness。
2.What is the surface treatment of the blade?
The blade is made of the original steel surface, except for the hairline pattern;Titanium plated version-The surface of the blade adopts anti-corrosion and titanium plating technology that is not easy to rust;Stone washing style-Passivation of the blade surface through exclusive stone washing technology to achieve rust resistance。
3.How high is the durability?
The hardness of the steel used in the extreme series reaches60HRC±2(Depending on different surface treatment processes, there may be differences),Compared to ordinary steel(54-59HRC)Stronger and more resilient。In addition, the initial sharpness is as high as163(The EU standard isICP110)、Sharpness and durability up to667(The EU standard isTCC500),The durability of kitchen knives on the market is generally150-280Value approximately4.5times,Therefore, the expression is intentional,Can be maintained at the top level for a long time,Achieve long-lasting and non decreasing sharpness,Besides saving the trouble of frequent sharpening of knives,It is also a secret weapon for preserving the freshness of ingredients。
4.Can powder steel be ground with a regular grinding stone?
You can use a sharpening stone,Reminder to be careful with grinding;Stone washed and titanium plated models are recommended to use a sharpener,To maintain the beauty of the blade surface。
5.Will it rust or break the knife?
The extreme series is manufactured using ultra-high hardness powder steel,Therefore, it has strong corrosion and rust resistance capabilities,Don't worry about the knife breaking。The extreme series kitchen knives that have undergone three rounds of quenching, regardless of durability、hardness、Both toughness and sharpness are at the top level。
6.How to maintain?
Clean the kitchen knife with water immediately after use,Then wipe dry with a dry cloth,Place in a well ventilated area。If you don't get used to kitchen knives for a long time,After wiping it dry, wrap it in newspaper and place it in a well ventilated and non damp place。
7.Does the knife holder in the entire set have a sharpening function?
The knife holder does not have a sharpening function,But it has the function of arranging flowers。
8.Will it require frequent sharpening?
Characteristics of Powder Steel,Basically not requiring frequent sharpening of knives,Compared to other general steels,Strong wear resistance。
