.So, what is so good about the Granton Edge that all other knife manufacturers want to copy it? Let’s start with the raw material; the steel. We use a high carbon stainless steel that ensures the benefit in appearance of stainless is coupled with the hardness and edge retention properties that the carbon content provides. Next, there is the heat treatment process which has been developed over many years. This, along with the grinding process, is the real secret of the knife. The steel must be strong enough to ensure that the fine cutting edge is maintained for the longest possible duration, and when eventually the edge needs revitalising it can easily accomplished using a sharpening steel.
