鋼芯: SPG STRIX®
武生特殊鋼材最新研發的鋼材,熱處理後硬度為HRC65,俱有最上級的鋒利度及保持度。雖然SPG STRIX®硬度極高,卻不像傳統的粉末鋼難磨,而且鋒利感與碳鋼相約。
SPG STRIX®憑其精確的成分設計,不僅增強了金屬硬度,還以一種平衡的方式同時實現了高水平的耐腐蝕性、韌性及其他參數。絕對是近年最革命性的鋼材之一。
SPG STRIX is a stainless powder steel that was created to strengthen a metallic base material, featuring both workability and ease of sharpening like carbon steel, despite its high hardness.
It is the best powder steel for knives, as its strong metallic base achieves ideal cutting edges and provides unsurpassed cutting sharpness.

Steel Info

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel offers strong rust resistance and is relatively easy to maintain, making it ideal for both home kitchens and busy professional environments. However, stainless steel is not completely rust-proof. Exposure to high humidity over extended time can still corrode the steel. After cleaning, please dry the blade immediately and ensure it is completely dry before storage. 

Carbon Steel

Carbon steel generally contains little or no chromium, which makes it less resistant to rust. It is recommended to keep a slightly damp towel handy to wipe the blade regularly during use to maintain cleanliness. Before storage, apply a thin coat of knife oil to help prevent rust. Over time, a natural patina will form, turning the blade grey blue-ish. It actually helps protect the blade from corrosion. 

Nowadays, many carbon steel knives feature stainless steel cladding. In these cases, only the exposed cutting edge and spine require extra attention. However, if the cladding is made of soft iron, the entire knife remains susceptible to rust and should be handled with care.
