Robert Herder 1922 knives: top quality knives with a classic German design
The distinctive Robert Herder 1922 knives are made according to a classic design from 1922. The blades are sharpened to have a very thin edge, making these knives cut very smoothly. Cutting has to do with bridging resistance, which means the thinner the blade is, the more effortlessly you can cut. This is where the 1922 knives excel.
Features of Robert Herder 1922 knives
Carbon-steel blades
The blades of the 1922-knives are made of carbon steel. This steel can often be sharpened to a higher level of sharpness than stainless steel, and it will retain that sharpness for a longer time too. However, carbon steel is not stainless and these knives require a little TLC because of this. Wash them by hand immediately after use and dry them off well. Never leave the knife wet or dirty because it will rust. Over time patina will form on the blade and the steel will be a little more stainless. You'll have to be extra careful when cutting acidic products too.
Handle material of the Robert Herder 1922 knives
The Robert Herder 1922 knives are available with different handle materials. You can choose between handles made from walnut wood or plum wood. Both are very beautiful wood types that will look gorgeous in every kitchen.
Robert Herder Manufactur
Robert Herder knives are not produced in a factory, but in a relatively small-scale work place. Pretty much everything is done by hand. This makes the delivery times sometimes slightly longer than those of competing brands that work from a factory.
