Knife Build
Our knives are hand-thinned after hardening to create an ultra-thin, easy to sharpen and durable edge that are never brittle.
We use only top-quality high-carbon stainless steel for our professional line, ensuring lasting sharpness and strength. Each professional knife features a full tang, a high-quality epoxy handle, and solid brass bolsters.
Our beginner/student knives are crafted from a softer, lower-grade steel—still good in quality—designed to provide reliable performance and easy maintenance. They also feature a plastic half tang handle.
