Aug 20, 2019 /prREACH/ -- KUMA, a popular manufacturer of kitchen utility products, strongly believes that the selection of the right material goes a long way in creating kitchen knives that are functional, durable and comfortable to use. The company currently offers three high-quality knives, and its flagship, the kitchen chef knife, is one of the top-rated Amazon products to date.
In the modern knife-manufacturing industry, stainless-steel is undoubtedly the preferred choice because of its corrosion-resistance properties. Within this group, additional properties can be added to enhance other elements. According to KUMA, the most critical stainless-steel properties for knife-making are hardness, strength, toughness, initial sharpness, edge retention, corrosion and wear resistance and formability.
"Compared to most other varieties of stainless steel, 3Cr13 has higher strength and hardness. It also shows reasonable corrosion resistance properties in dilute nitric acid and weak organic acid at room temperature," said a senior spokesperson from KUMA. "This stainless-steel has good mechanical processing performance. After quenching and tempering treatment, when hardness is below HRC30, 3Cr13 material has good processability and makes it much easier to achieve good surface quality."
According to the brand, its popular chefs knife has a Japanese-inspired profile design with a smooth and ergonomic handle. The 3Cr13 stainless steel blade offers the perfect balance between toughness and sharpness retention, KUMA says. To date, many customers have used these knives with satisfaction for delicate slicing and chopping of vegetables, carving meat, and even cutting through thin bones.
In a recently posted Amazon review, the user mentioned, "Best knife for the price. Razor-sharp out of the box and the balance of it is amazing. It started wearing down after two months of hard use, but a run on the whetstone brought it back even sharper. I would recommend this knife to anyone. Quality product for a good price."
KUMA has also received recommendations on Amazon for its Damascus Steel Knife, a product manufactured with premium-quality imported steel put through an eight-stage engineering process, according to the company.
