Contour 7 Piece Knife Block Set

Finest Stainless Steel Blade Quality

The finest high carbon steel maintains its sharpness over a long period, reducing the need for frequent sharpening. After unique treatment the blade is less prone to chipping and corrosion, maintaining its functionality and appearance.

Weight Added Stainless Steel Hollow Handle with Contour Curved Handle

The added weight in the handle provides better balance, making the knife easier to control. A contour curved handle with supremely elegant design enhances grip and comfort, reducing hand strain during extended use.

Matte Surface Finish of the Handle

A matte surface on the handle offers a non-slip grip, improving safety and precision in cutting.

53-55 Rockwell Hardness with 15-17 Edge Angle Degree

This level of hardness indicates a good balance between blade flexibility and strength, making it suitable for various cutting tasks. The 15-17 degree edge, deemed as “Golden Angle” of a knife, allows for sharp, precise cuts, enhancing the knife's overall cutting performance.

Oil-Hardened Blades, Remarkably Sharp, Stay Sharper Longer, Highly Corrosion Resistant

Oil quenching heat treatment (Oil hardening) involves heating the knife and then rapidly cooling it in oil. The advantages of this process include preventing prolonged exposure to air, which controls the formation of surface oxidation layers. Oil quenching also results in higher hardness (1-2HRC higher) compared to air cooling in the same temperature range. The oil used in the quenching process covers the blade surface, preventing oxidation and resulting in better toughness and rust resistance compared to conventional heat treatment.
