All Granton knives are
made in Sheffield, England to the highest standards and are fully
guaranteed.
Most Granton knives are made from fully hardened and tempered
stainless steel and are easy to clean. Both the black and coloured
handles are insert-moulded from polypropylene co-polymer to
withstand sterilising and dishwasher use and do not present the
potential health hazards that are frequently associated with other
knives. Granton blades are laser tested and made to BS EN ISO
8442-1:1998 from hot Sheffield forgings or fully hardened and
tempered stainless steel, double taper ground and hand
finished.
The patented Granton® Edge
can be found in every place where a perfect cutting edge is
appreciated. First introduced over 50 years ago, the secret of its
success lies in the precision with which the scallops are ground on
alternate sides of the blade, giving the keenness of a hollow
ground razor coupled with the strength of an ordinary knife. In
addition, the patented ground scallops create air cushions which
allow for smooth and fast cutting. Granton® knives only require to
be steeled occasionally in the normal way to retain a perfect
cutting edge.
