WHY THE PRICE IS JUSTIFIED

MATERIALS

BladesStainless steel

Corrosion-resistant utility steel suitable for poultry, herbs, and packaging.

Cutting edgeMicro-serrated stainless steel

Adds bite on slippery food and tough packaging.

HandlesTextured polymer with non-slip lining

PivotSeparable joint

Permits cleaning and drying at the hinge.
