Cerasteel Blade
I AM NEXT GENERATION TECHNOLOGY. Cerasteel is made by combining Ceramic (Cera) and Metal (Steel) to create CeraSteel.
They are next-generation, high-quality knives made under a high-temperature process to give you a Cerasteel cutting edge blade that has a lifetime guarantee.
Using this technology in kitchen knives, is a revolution for knife making. Adding the Cerasteel to the edge can substantially increase hardness, abrasion resistance, heat resistance and corrosion resistance.
They won’t chip or break and they will remain sharper than other kitchen knives.
They have the same high tenacity and shock resistance as a steel knife which means the cutting edge doesn’t easily chip like a ceramic knife.
Specifications:
- Blade size: 3.5in (8.8cm)
- Hardness: HRC 64 ±2
- G10 fibreglass black handle
Care Guidelines:
To ensure the longevity and performance of your knife, follow these care guidelines:
Cutting Surfaces
- Use smooth, easy-to-clean cutting boards such as wooden, bamboo, or polyethylene boards.
- Avoid cutting on surfaces that can dull or damage the blade, including ceramic, stainless steel, granite, marble, porcelain, and glass.
Cleaning & Maintenance
- Hand wash only: Clean your knife with warm, soapy water immediately after use. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Avoid dishwashers: High heat, harsh detergents, and jostling against other utensils can damage the blade and handle.
- Store in a knife block, magnetic strip, or protective sheath to maintain sharpness and prevent accidents.
By following these care instructions, your knife will remain sharp, reliable, and safe for years to come.
