【PREMIUM AR-RPM9 STAINLESS STEEL】- Engineered for peak performance, this Classic chef knife is forged from AR-RPM9 stainless steel. Knives that are produced using this steel are: highly corrosion resistant, maintain a fine sharp edge for an extended period of time, and can be easily maintained and sharpened. We are proud to be using a proprietary spray-form process to keep the grain structure of this steel exceptionally fine, which improves the overall tougness and performance of the steel over time.

Whether slicing delicate herbs or dense root vegetables, the ultra-fine edge minimizes friction, ensuring smooth, effortless cuts that preserve the texture and freshness of your ingredients.

To preserve the edge, balance, and longevity of your premium knife, follow these expert maintenance practices:
- Hand Wash and Dry Immediately: Gently clean with mild soap and warm water, then pat dry with a soft towel. This prevents water spots, corrosion, and warping.
- Avoid Harsh Cleaners and Soaking: Steer clear of abrasive pads, steel wool, or prolonged immersion in water, which can dull the blade or compromise the handle's integrity.
- Secure Storage: Use a magnetic strip, wooden block, or sheath to protect the edge and prevent accidental nicks. Never store loose in drawers.
- Cut on Appropriate Surfaces: Reserve soft wood or plastic cutting boards to minimize edge damage—avoid glass, marble, ceramic, or hardwoods like bamboo.
- Regular Sharpening: Maintain peak performance with a whetstone (for precision honing), honing steel (daily touch-ups), or guided sharpener as needed. Aim for 15-20° angles based on your blade type.
