Design 

All knives in the set are made in the style of the Inca Civilization and have an unusual blade shape and a handle decorated with ancient ornaments. On the blade is a sign with an inscription like the Incas.

Production material 

The knives in the Inca set are made of expensive and pure raw materials, snow-white zirconium dioxide. The anatomically shaped handle is made of plastic, which is coated with Soft-touch and patterned.

Production technology

Blades of the Inca series are made of zirconium dioxide. Hardening consists of heating to a temperature of 1800 degrees Celsius for two days, resulting in a material equal to 82 HRC, second only to diamond in hardness.

Sharpening type

The blades of the knives in the Inca set are hand-sharpened on both sides. The factory sharpening angle is 15-17 degrees. Previously, Knife & Knives ceramic knives had a larger angle and sharpening was not so filigree. Today, knives are much sharper and still durable.

Package 

The set is packaged in a black box decorated with green ornaments and inscriptions in the style of the Ancient Incas. Knives are tightly inserted due to stops and a special shape, which does not allow them to fall out. Additionally, the blade of each knife has a protective transparent cover, which serves to protect the blade and protect against accidental cuts. 

Care and Storage

Products do not absorb odors, they are easy to clean, and often they do not need to be sharpened. With proper use, no more than 5 times, sharpening will last for 3 years. Zirconium ceramic knives require careful care and proper storage. Regularly check the condition of the cutting edge and keep it in a working position with a sharpener or an electric sharpener. Read more about care and proper storage in our article (link).

The Knife & Knives Inca set includes functional knives made of zirconium ceramics, with practical handles, resistant to moisture and aggressive chemical influences. A small sharpening angle makes these knives razor-sharp. The hardness of the cutting edge reaches 82 HRC, which means that in terms of hardness such knives are second only to diamonds and the blade will not need to be sharpened very soon. These knives are great for home use.
