The Glestain SO Series knives have been designed to meet the needs of both professional and amateur cooks! These Japanese knives are distinguished by their remarkable sharpness and ergonomic handles, offering optimal grip. With these knives, you'll benefit from time-saving and comfort during your kitchen preparations!
The Glestain brand was founded by Akira Honma, a visionary engineer seeking to fuse technology and science to achieve perfectly optimized results! From its beginnings in the 1970s, the brand's strategy was to establish direct contact with restaurants and chefs in order to raise its profile. This approach provided vital feedback, fuelling the brand's constant drive for improvement.
Honma san personally passes on its manufacturing techniques and innovations to carefully selected craftsmen, reinforcing the reputation of Glestain knives among foodservice professionals.
The blade of this filet de sole knife is made of ACUTO440 stainless steel, an alloy renowned for its oxidation resistance and durability. It is frequently used in the design of Glestain knives. This alloy is mainly composed of carbon, chromium, molybdenum and vanadium.
Carbon plays an essential role in increasing the blade's hardness. With a hardness of 59HRC on the Rockwell scale, this blade offers very good edge retention while ensuring remarkable cutting capabilities.
The vanadium and molybdenum in the alloy also contribute to the blade's hardness. Vanadium adds elasticity to the blade, improving its resistance to impact. As for molybdenum and chromium, they play an essential role in improving corrosion resistance.
This steel therefore offers an optimum combination of performance, durability and strength, perfectly suited to the demands of professional use. What's more, its easy workability makes it an alloy that's easy to maintain with a whetstone.
To maximize cutting efficiency, your Japanese knife has been subjected to Sub Zero tempering: a technique consisting of heating the blade to a high temperature, then quenching it at extremely low temperatures. Thanks to this method, the blade acquires significant rigidity, creating a fine, uniform structure. At Glestain, this process is applied in 7 stages, requiring time and great precision.
The blade also features a convex cutting edge that further optimizes its cutting performance. In fact, a convex edge promotes better food penetration, ensuring cleaner, more precise cuts!
Last but not least, to complete the blade, honeycombs have been added, preventing food from sticking to the sides of your knife.
The handle of this Japanese knife is made of black pakkawood, a composite material renowned for its strength and durability. Composed of resin and laminated wood, this material is heat-hardened, offering the advantages of a robust composite while retaining the natural appearance of wood thanks to its distinctive grain.
With a Western shape, the handle is designed to fit the hands of all cooks. It offers an ergonomic grip and controlled maneuverability, ensuring optimum comfort during use, especially over extended periods.
Finally, this Japanese kitchen knife features 3 stainless steel rivets, ensuring that the full tang blade is securely fixed in the handle. This guarantees optimum reliability for your knife!
To care for your Glestain knife, wash only by hand with a soft sponge. Once cleaned, dry immediately with a clean cloth to remove all traces of moisture before storing in a dry place. Do not put in the dishwasher or leave to soak in the sink.
