This Damascus Steel Bread Knife is a high quality powder steel option to add to your kitchen. Each HEZHEN knife has a steel core covered in two protective stainless layers. All of which are properly heated using a vacuum/freezer process for consistency.
The core of the blade makes up the cutting edge and is made of 14Cr14MoVNb Powder Steel. Powder steel is a steel making method that gives a lot of control over the steel’s substructure, evenly dispersing the various parts of the alloy for the best effects.
This means 14Cr14MoVNb has optimized the crystal structure of the steel to balance sharpness and corrosion resistance without using too many rare metals. Combined with two sections of Stainless Damascus steel, the blade can be very resistant to corrosion. The blade core and 72 layers of 2 different stainless steels, for a total of 73 layers.
The edge is on the higher side of hardness. The edge ranges from 62-64 on the Rockwell scale. This allows for a very sharp blade and long lasting edge, but also means it runs a higher risk of chipping. The chipping risk is mitigated by the Powder Steel structure, and use of Molybdenum, Vanadium, and Niobium (an alternative to Titanium). This combination is used to ensure that the edge of the blade is as sharp and durable as possible by creating stronger carbides in the steel
The handle is made of the new Red & Black G10, colored to look like Wood and mirrors the Damascus pattern on the blade. Ergonomically designed to allow for hours of use, the handles comfortably sit in your hand.
