Steel & Guarantee

We use Swedish high carbon steel. (*2008, Now using Sandvik 12C27 stainfree high carbon on Chefs *) All SVORD Knives are guaranteed for life against breakage under normal use. Of course this does not cover intentional misuse or neglect. Any knife that has clearly been misused will not be replaced.

Guarantee does not cover rust. Carbon steel knives need to be kept clean and dry when not in use.

These are enthusiast knives for the chef or sportsman who areinterested in knives that stay sharp longer and are easily sharpened, unlike stainless steel knives.

Handles

Update 2008-Sep

on the pro chefs deluxe we use laminated black and red acrylic that has been highly polished, making them now dishwasher safe and hygienic

All sporting models with the same shape handle as the 370BB have moulded black and red polycarbonate handles ,the other models have black and red acrylic, both these handle types are matt finished for non slip, on the above sporting knives that have brass bolsters exotic wood can be offered.

On the economy sporting knives  we utilise plantation grown sapele mahogany with a varnished finish.
