How KA-BAR Knives Are Made Making a quality KA-BAR product requires the talent of experienced craftspeople performing dozens of processes with precision and skill. Each knife undergoes specific manufacturing processes to ensure corrosion resistance, strength, edge-holding ability, and an out-of-the-box, razor-sharp cutting edge. Some of these manufacturing processes are highlighted below.

• Blanking: Using a 100-ton blanking press, KA-BAR can blank out nearly 9,000 blades in one full day of operation.
• Tang Stamping: Tang stamping is often used to identify a product's manufacturer, the country in which the product was made, and an item number.
• Heat Treating: To begin the three-step heat-treat process of stainless-steel blades, KA-BAR first runs the blades through a 70-foot conveyor oven that takes approximately one hour to cycle.
• Cryogenic Quenching: The second step in a three-phrase heat-treat process, KA-BAR cryogenically freezes its stainless-steel blades to -120 degrees F to optimize blade performance.
• Tempering: Tempering stainless-steel blades for approximately seven hours in a walk-in oven enhances steel toughness. KA-BAR is well known for its three-phase heat-treat process in which tempering is the last step.
• Grinding: KA-BAR knives feature flat- or hollow-ground blades. Flat grinds are best for jobs in which there will be great lateral stress. Hollow grinds provide a fine, extremely sharp edge that is perfect for more delicate tasks.
• Leather Handle Compression: KA-BAR's famous oval-shaped leather handle construction is accomplished by compressing leather washers onto the tang, shaping and coloring them, and then fastening them on with a pinned-on butt cap.
• Cap/Pin Assembly: The butt cap or pommel is attached to the handle of a knife with a steel pin. The pin is inserted into the butt cap, driven part way through the tang, then ground off and painted.
• Inspection: Each KA-BAR knife is subject to a multiple-step inspection process before being released for shipping.

J.A. Henckels International Eversharp Pro 3-Piece Stainless Steel Knife Set

J.A. Henckels International Eversharp Pro 3-Piece Stainless Steel Knife Set Review

J.A. Henckels International Eversharp Pro 3-Piece Stainless Steel Knife Set Feature

• Special serrated edge never needs sharpening
• Three-piece knife set: 8-inch chef's, 5-inch utility, 3-inch paring
• High-grade, rolled stainless steel capable of withstanding extreme stress
• Polypropylene handle is impact and shock resistant
• Dishwasher-safe, but hand washing preferred

This three-piece set of knives benefits from J.A. Henckels's 260 years in the cutlery business. The 8-inch chef's knife is a popular all-around knife for slicing and chopping, while the 5-inch utility knife will easily slice and dice smaller items, and the paring knife is great for peeling apples or slicing potatoes. They're made from high-grade, rolled stainless steel, produced using Henckels's own Sintermetal Component Technology. This process allows different grades of steel to be combined to form a single integral piece capable of withstanding extreme stress--each part of the knife is made from the grade of steel with the optimum characteristics for that component. Cutting edges feature a specially designed serration pattern, ensuring prolonged sharpness without resharpening. The full-length tang (meaning the metal continues all the way through to the end of the handle) gives you a better-balanced and stronger knife. The polypropylene handle with rustproof rivets is nearly indestructible. It's dishwasher-safe, but be careful that the blade doesn't touch other objects; hand washing is recommended to keep steel blades scratch free. --Doree Armstrong Henckels Eversharp Pro Three Piece Kitchen Knife Set: Model HK-08336. Includes 3" paring, 5" serrated utility and 7" chef's knives. Micro-serrated stainless blades never need sharpening. Visible tang. Triple riveted polypropylene handles. Hang packaged. Made in Japan.
