Set of 5 Kitchen Knives in an Oak Block

The Deco Black line features knives made from the highest quality stainless steel X50CrMoV15, with added chromium (increases corrosion resistance), molybdenum (reduces steel brittleness), and vanadium (enhances wear resistance).

The hardness of the Deco Black knife blade on the Rockwell scale is between 53-55 HRC. The Rockwell scale measures how well it retains sharpness over time and assesses resistance to mechanical damage and blade overload. Hard knives maintain their sharpness for a longer period, but are also harder to sharpen, less flexible, and more prone to cracking and chipping. Each knife must be rigid enough to precisely cut various ingredients, but also flexible enough not to break when changing the cutting angle or under high pressure. Typically, the hardness for kitchen knives is indicated from 52 degrees HRC, while 57-58 HRC already denotes hard steel. The hardness of Gerlach kitchen knife blades has been adjusted to ensure exceptionally precise and sharp cuts, while also minimizing the likelihood of blade breakage during intensive use.
