32 Dumas Affil stainless steel butcher knife 28cm 3 rivets handle

The 32 Dumas brand is the oldest knife brand from the town of Thiers, the cutlery capital of France. The brand strives to offer quality knives for every culinary profession. This 28cm slicing butcher knife is part of the Affil collection, made in France.

Ideal for use in professional settings, this knife boasts some very interesting features thanks to the materials of which it is made.

The blade is made of X50CrMoNV15 stainless steel:

- X : stainless

- 50: 0.5% carbon - for sharpness

- Cr: Chromium - for corrosion resistance

- Mo: Molybdenum - for impact resistance

- N: for nitrogen reinforcement

- V: Vanadium - for strength

- 15: 15% chromium

These different materials give the blade ideal properties for everyday use.
With a hardness of 57/59 HRC, the blade of this knife is of professional quality and will retain its sharpness for a long time. This level of hardness also makes it easy to sharpen (with a Sharpening steel, for example).

The POM handle (a polymer often used in the kitchen) offers an ideal grip thanks to its ergonomic shape. This material has good wear resistance and low water absorption. The rivets running through the handle are made of brass, a corrosion-resistant and easy-to-maintain material. The handle of this knife offers comfort and durability, for pleasant regular use.

By combining robust, high-quality materials, 32 Dumas has succeeded in creating a well-balanced knife perfect for professionals as well as beginners and amateurs.

To preserve the sharpness of the blade and the overall condition of the knife, the brand strongly recommends hand-washing followed by immediate drying with a soft cloth.
