Material Science and Metallurgy

The X50CrMoV15 steel used in the Signature range is a molybdenum-vanadium alloy. The chromium content provides exceptional corrosion resistance, while the vanadium enhances grain structure and wear resistance. Each blade is ice-hardened to ensure the serrated edge remains sharp significantly longer than traditional straight-edge steak knives when used on hard surfaces.

Care and Specialized Maintenance

• Cleaning: While officially rated as dishwasher safe, we strongly recommend hand-washing with mild detergent and immediate drying to preserve the aesthetic finish of the bolster and the integrity of the oak box.
• Serration Care: The scalloped serrations are designed to avoid contact with the plate at their sharpest points, extending the life of the edge. Professional sharpening is recommended only after years of heavy use.
• Storage: Always return knives to the oak box when not in use to prevent edge-to-edge contact and oxidation.
