Hohenmoor Office Knife Carbon Steel

General Information
Masterpieces. With character.
There are only a few forges left in Germany where knives are actually made by hand - Hohenmoorer Messermanufaktur is one of them. There knives are created as honest, solid, highly functional tools for everyday use.
Puristic and durable. For fine and coarse.
At first glance, the Hohenmoor knives pick up Eastern forging. But Uli Hennicke, blacksmith and founder of the manufactory, creates his very own design language. Each of his knives is unique. In almost meditative concentration, he forges extremely durable blades that fascinate with their purist, almost archaic-looking minimalism.
In use, however, the Hohenmoor kitchen knives prove their versatility. For example, the curved blade shape of the chef's knife allows the weighing of larger quantities of cut material, but thanks to the characteristic beveled tip are just as well fine work easily possible.
"Grab" desired. Ready to grip and hand tight.
The beveled tip mainly improves the break resistance of the blade, which is ground on both sides. To keep the material more flexible and prevent the blade from breaking away, the steel is tempered once again at the transition to the handle, as the bluish tint visible on the mono steel blade strikingly attests in this area. The handle itself, made of smoked oak, also shows that the manufactory attaches great importance to character: The distinctive grain of the oak wood emerges differently on each handle due to the smoking process.
The tang, held in place with a brass ring, lies completely within the handle of the knife. This brass ring is additionally glued - this prevents moisture from penetrating the handle and deforming or cracking the wood.
With their octagonal oak handle and their balanced weight, Hohenmoor knives lie well in the hand - reliable tools for working in the kitchen.
Hard as steel. And unadorned.
To protect the stainless carbon steel from corrosion and tarnishing for longer, it is bathed in coffee and tea - this process creates the characteristic patina that gives the blades a highly individual, unadorned appearance.
Care instructions:
Carbon steel knives do not belong in the dishwasher. Wipe the knives dry after rinsing and occasionally apply some blade oil. Discoloration may occur on the blade material. However, this is not a sign of inferior quality, but only indicates the rather high carbon content in the material. In case of flash rust, the use of the rust eraser is recommended. A resharpening can be done with the sharpening steel.
