Technical information blade and handle:

AISI 430 is a stainless steel type to which chrome has been added. This type of steel is often used for cutlery because it is easy to shape (spoons and forks), has a strong gloss layer and does not rust quickly.

AISI 420 is a stronger stainless steel type to which carbon has been added in addition to chrome. This steel is less easy to bend and is very suitable for making knives. With a heat treatment, this steel is extra hardened (HRC52 / 56) so that the cutting surface is damaged less quickly and remains sharp for longer. It is also highly resistant to corrosion.

HRC52 / 56 is the standard by which the hardness of the steel is indicated. This type of steel will not break easily and is less susceptible to corrosion.

18/10 stainless steel is a type of steel to which 18% chrome and 10% nickel has been added. Chrome gives the steel a durable glossy finish and nickel protects against rust. There are also cutlery types of steel (18/8 and 18/0) to which less or almost no nickel has been added. These are slightly less resistant to rust.
