IOSHEN KNIVES

A stunning range of Japanese steel knives using Triplex Steel Technology. The secret is the centre layer of Rockwell stainless steel that provides the ultimate cutting edge, which will retain sharpness for an extraordinarily long time. I.O. Shen's distinctive handle is specially designed for balance and stability, which makes these knives a favourite with many professional chefs. The blend of high technology materials and traditional hand finishing skills has produced an exceptional range of knives.
The unique Triplex steel blades have won many admirers - especially in the professional sector:
"... the handle alone is ground breaking in it's design and feel". - Anthony Demetre - co-owner of the Arbutus and Wild Honey restaurants in London.
For many years, knife manufacturers have been trying to achieve the ultimate cutting edge which is rated using a Rockwell degree scale (liken it to degrees Fahrenheit) - the highest being Rockwell 62° (this is like the boiling point of water). However, the brittleness of the knife has made this impossible to produce commercially without using a Damascus method, which is very expensive. I.O. Shen have overcome this problem by sandwiching 2 softer outer layers of steel with Rockwell 62° to produce the ultimate cutting edge. We call this Triplex Steel Technology. All the knives in the I.O. Shen range have used the very latest technology to construct a blade that is not only amazingly sharp but will also retain their edge for a phenomenal amount of time. They have also been hand sharpened to a 15° angle, which allows for wonderful slicing and portion control.

The Tai Tang Handle

The I.O. Shen Tai Tang handle is not just an embellishment but it is actually an integral part of the handle frame (the tang). Since the I.O. Shen Mastergrade knives were launched in the UK in September 2004, they've had an impressive impact on this competitive market. The unique handle design distinguishes I.O. Shen from any other knife brand, as well as improving balance and handle stability.

I.O.Shen knives fuse beauty and performance. With a unique Tai Tang I.O. Shen knives utilise unique technology in their manufacture, using a layer of super hard steel, Rockwell 62°, which is cushioned by outer layers of softer stainless steel, Rockwell 10°, I.O.Shen knives are not just for looking at.

The blades are forged with a bolster for weight making them well balanced and safe.

These knives are of excellent construction and lovely styling. They are ideal for chopping and slicing and specialist knives in the range are suited to every kitchen task. Stellar Sabatier is very popular with professional chef's who prefer a traditional style knife.
