Production:
Following years of research ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS has developed the Sintermetal Component Technology (SCT). ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS is the only cutlery manufacturer worldwide that has mastered this innovative technology.

Materials:
The quality of a knife is decisively influenced by the grade of steel used. The most important characteristics of the steel used to make the blade are corrosion resistance and hardness.
They are achieved by the corresponding chemical composition and appropriate heat treatment.
Different types of steel are used in the cutlery industry of which stainless steel has become predominant during the last few decades.

Stainless steel - special formula:
Until 1965 ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS produced its own steel. The company did intensive research how to optimise the qualities of steel to meet the specific requirements of the cutlery industry. Based on these findings and research results ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS´ special formula with the optimum ratio of carbon, chromium and other components was developed.

Innovations:
Razor Edge: Following intensive research ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS has developed an innovating honing technique that guarantees an extremely high initial cutting performance. This technique is mainly used for the Asian-style knives (e.g. Santoku knife). After grinding the blade gets a fine-polish treatment to remove even the tiniest burrs.
