KNIFE CARE

Carbon steel requires much more care than stainless steels. The basic principle of the maintenance of carbon steel knives is to wipe them dry, leaving a dirty knife even for a moment will quickly cover it with a patina. After wiping the knife dry, it is best to lubricate it with a small amount of camellia oil, which will additionally protect the blade. Leaving a wet knife to dry on its own will result in the appearance of small spots of rust. It is completely unacceptable to wash the knives in a dishwasher, chemicals and high temperature will negatively affect the handle and the blade, it can also lead to permanent damage to the knife. The knife is used only for cutting soft, boned and non-frozen products. If the blade comes into contact with the bone, it can chip. When cutting, do not twist the knife from side to side, as it may break the tip if the knife is jammed in the product. The wood and plastic boards recommended by us, cutting on glass or stone boards is prohibited, it will lead to an accelerated process of blunting the knife and possible nicks. The knife should only be used as a cutting tool, the thin, sharp design perfectly cuts the products, but when you try to open the jars, the blade may chip.

STEEL

Shirogami #1 (whitesteel)

Composition:

  • Carbon: 1,25-1,35%
  • Manganese: 0,20-0,30%
  • Silicon: 0,10-0,20%
  • Phosphorus: 0,025%
  • Sulfur: 0,004%

Shirogami 1 steel, another steel cast by Hitachi Steelworks, also known as Shiro-ko 1 or simply Shiro-ko. It is a high-carbon steel with a degree of purity subject to restrictive standards. It contains more carbon than Shirogami 2 steel, which makes it even harder, which, however, makes it difficult to work with. With increasing hardness, the sharpness increases, but also the brittleness. A skilled user of knives will surely appreciate razor-sharp blades with incredibly long sharpness. As with all carbon steels, proper maintenance is essential with the prospect of corrosion.
