Description

Technical data

Product facts

Experience a completely new feeling when cutting. The high-quality Fly Wheel Cut S is manufactured in cooperation with the Tyrolean tool expert Stubai. The name is derived from the so-called flywheel cut, which can be performed effortlessly and instinctively with this knife.

The high and long blade of this knife, which is handcrafted in 64 steps, reduces the risk of injury if the fingers are held correctly and enables fast, even and effortless cutting. While the thumb and index finger stabilize the end of the blade, the tip of the knife always remains on the cutting board. The hand simply follows the movement of the 133 g lightweight knife like a flywheel, ensuring a clean cut.

The special coating, which characterizes all knives in the DARKLINE knife series, ensures low resistance and high gliding properties. This greatly reduces the sticking of the food being cut. See also the other kitchen knife range from Tyrolit Life. You can also order knife sharpeners online.

The material

Stainless, martensitic, high-end stainless chromium steel (60 HRC) with special alloy additives provides a high degree of hardness thanks to a special microstructure. Your knife therefore meets the same high requirements as precision tools or surgical instruments, for example.

The curing process

The deformability of the steel is significantly reduced by vacuum hardening at up to 1050 °C and subsequent nitrogen overpressure cooling. After this extreme temperature treatment, the blade is carefully heated again. This so-called “tempering” guarantees the exact degree of hardness and optimum flexibility.

The cut of the blade

In the grinding shop, the blade blanks are pre-ground with special grinding stones under strong cooling before the blades are then polished in several grinding processes and the edges are ground down. Fine grinding is achieved with particularly hard CBN grinding wheels.

The coating

The black coating was adopted from the tool industry. It ensures exceptionally high gliding properties when cutting and gives the knife its unique look.

The handle

The handle scales are prefabricated from Micarta and milled three-dimensionally on a multi-axis CNC machine. The handles are given their ergonomic shape through careful grinding and polishing by hand before they are pressed airtight with the steel and permanently bonded.

The engraving & the finishing touches

The contour of the knife is finely polished and creates the characteristic effect of the elegant interplay between the high-gloss metal and the deep black blade. All edges of the knife, except for the cutting edge, are rounded. The laser engraving remains visible for the life of the knife. Each individual knife is carefully polished again after the final sharpening and checked by the master craftsman. Only then is it released for sale. In this way, this TYROLIT LIFE product guarantees consistent quality with every piece.
