32 Dumas Thermo Black sticking knife 15cm blade

The 32 Dumas brand produces the Thermo Black collection of knives in Thiers, the cutlery capital of France. Designed to meet the demanding needs of professionals in the culinary trades, they are made from materials with very interesting properties for regular use in professional settings.

First of all, the blade of this knife is made of X50CrMoNV15 stainless steel. Here are the details of the elements that make up this alloy:

- X : stainless

- 50 : 0.5% carbon - guarantees a certain level of sharpness

- Cr: Chromium - helps combat corrosion

- Mo: Molybdenum - provides shock resistance

- N: Nitrogen - strengthens steel

- V: Vanadium - provides strength

- 15 : 15% chromium

The resulting blade reaches a hardness of 57/59 HRC on the Rockwell scale: for easy sharpening and a long-lasting edge. This sturdy, high-performance blade is ideal for meat preparation.

Finally, the handle of this knife is made from overmolded elastomer. This technical process involves injecting the material into a mold so that it surrounds the knife's tang. The result is a robust handle that prevents the risk of contamination. There are fewer gaps between the handle and the blade, considerably reducing the risk of residue build-up. The ergonomic shape of the handle, combined with the anti-slip properties of the elastomer, make this a knife with an optimum grip for safe use (reinforced by the developed guard).

To preserve the quality of the cutting edge and the overall condition of the knife, 32 Dumas recommends hand-washing followed by drying with a soft cloth.
