Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of steel is the InLeung chef knife made from?
A: The blade is crafted from 5Cr15MoV high-carbon stainless steel, a popular and durable culinary-grade steel known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of resharpening — making it well-suited for daily kitchen use.
Q: Is this knife suitable for chopping through bone?
A: Yes. The InLeung handmade forged cleaver is designed with a robust blade angle greater than 60° and a precision-forged high-carbon stainless steel blade, making it capable of handling both delicate slicing tasks and heavier chopping jobs including bone and dense meat cuts.
Q: How should I care for this knife to keep it in top condition?
A: Always hand wash the knife with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately with a clean cloth. Avoid soaking in water or placing in a dishwasher, as this can affect both the blade and the wooden handle over time. Regular honing will help maintain the sharp edge.
Q: Is the handle comfortable for extended use?
A: Absolutely. The 11 cm natural wooden handle is ergonomically shaped for a secure, non-slip grip, and the balanced weight distribution between the blade and handle reduces arm fatigue during long cooking sessions.
