What makes a good knife

A high-quality kitchen knife is composed of many factors, and it is not determined by a single factor. In this article, let’s take a brief look at what are the main factors that determine how to make a good kitchen knife.

1. Practical and excellent design

The so-called “practical and excellent design” does not refer to those new and original designs that come up with wild ideas.  This must be chefs who have long-term practical experience in kitchen knives, feedback their every feeling and suggestions for improvement in practical operation, and inspire designers’ inspiration, so that designers can design kitchen knives with both beauty and practicality according to their actual operating habits.

A design that has not been tested in practice, no matter how beautiful and novel the design is, the kitchen knife produced base on it is often difficult to use. This kind of knife cannot be called a good kitchen knife.

2. Profound cultural connotation

A knife without culture is, at best, a soulless knife that is mass-produced on an industrial assembly line.

The unique cultural connotation will fundamentally affect the design concept, thus profoundly affecting the shape of the kitchen knife. And excellent knife, it brings not only the use of functions, but also a concept, a way of life. This unique cultural connotation will accompany the whole service life of the product and affect the final customer.

3. High quality raw materials

The quality of raw materials will directly affect the quality of the product itself. Low quality raw materials can never produce a high-quality kitchen knife. And high-quality raw materials make it possible for a knife to become an excellent product.

4. Excellent production and processing ability

The level of production and processing is very important. If a factory has chaotic production and processing management, vague standards and loose requirements, then even if it has high-quality materials, it will be wasted. Just like a poor cook, no matter how good the ingredients are, they can’t cook delicacies with excellent flavor.

The factory with orderly management, clear standards and strict requirements, like a technologically excellent chef, can create an excellent work with high-quality raw materials.
