Premier Materials

This knife features Swedish Sandvik 14C28N Steel for a long lasting and durable product. Swedish Steel offers a mix of incredible hardness and durability with the ability to reach a hardness rating of 59 ±2 on the Rockwell Hardness Rating Scale. These steels maintain their sharp edge up to 5 times longer than German X50CrMoV15 Steel. That means a knife that stays sharper, longer.

GOOD DESIGN

Aesthetics must push into function. Every curve and angle is used to ensure a secure and comfortable hold on the handle. Our knives are exceptionally well balanced and every seam is flush. This means our knives feel great to grip and hold, work well for heavy kitchen use and are easy to keep clean and sanitary. The knife feels like a natural extension, a precise tool that can easily be used for long durations of time while cutting and prepping food.

HEAT TREATMENT

It took 3+ years of research and development to dial in the specific heat treatment process that would ensure our knives are both hard enough to take a sharp 16 degree edge, yet durable enough to keep that sharp edge during heavy kitchen use. Every blade goes through our precise ULTRA6 heat treatment which brings out the best qualities of each steel allowing the blade to take a remarkably sharp edge.

HANDCRAFTED

At the end of the day a knife needs to perform. All Cangshan knives proudly can do just that. The quality and craftsmanship of the knives ensure they precisely and effectively perform their cutting functions giving the user a responsive and refined tactile experience that enhances and augments their skills and process. Every knife from Cangshan is handcrafted and hand sharpened, these are real, passionate artisans creating beautiful, functional tools.
