The handles of our knives improve with Biomaster technology.
Biomaster is a permanent antibacterial protection, consisting of an additive based on silver ions, inorganic, suitable for the provision of anti-bacterial characteristics to plastics.
The high concentration of silver ions present in the additive Biomaster, provides a release of silver ions, which inhibits securely microbial growth since the early minutes, reachinga nearly complete inhibition in 24 hours.
Once incorporated into a product, Biomaster becomes an integral part of providing a safe antimicrobial protection, efficient and inexhaustible.

- The material used will resist sudden temperature changes (from -40°C to +150°C), corrosive agents and detergents
- This means that the knife can be cleaned in a dishwasher and sterilized
- The handle is perfectly balanced with the blade
- The handle’s green colour makes the knife immediately visible on the work bench: greater safety at work

USE
Each model of knife is made for a specific purpose. Do not use the knife for anything else. Do not let the blade come into contact with hard surfaces (ceramic tile, granite worktops etc.).
CLEANING
This knife can be washed in a dishwasher as long as you make sure that it is removed immediately after the cycle is completed. It may also be washed by hand, using ordinary household detergents. In this case, make sure that you remove all the débris that easily accumulates on the blade in the area near the handle: take special care to clean your knives well after using them in contact with corrosive substances: for example, oxidation is accelerated by the abundance of sodium chloride found in fish processing. In general, all organic liquids are potentially harmful if left in contact with the blade for many hours.
MAINTENANCE
You should sharpen your knives with the sharpening steel. If you use a grindstone, make sure that you use specific abrasives and a cooler: tempering could cause a loss of hardness and breakage.
