Hane-Ba Titanium
From Japan, once again, a new line of knives with titanium blade.
Simple and essential in form, and made from technically advanced materials, they represent a perfect balance between sensation and functionality, and the ultimate combination of beauty and technical precision .
Hane Ba means "feather blade" in Japanese.
Because only a feather could come anywhere near the incredible lightness of the Japanese Hane Ba knife.
The Hane Ba is so light compared to a conventional knife, that laws of gravity seem not to apply.
The hardness of the blade, and the incredible way it keeps its edge, can only be appreciated over time, through daily use of this precious kitchen utensil.
It is titanium that gives Hane Ba its unique characteristics.
And it is titanium, frequently referred to as "the metal of dreams", that gives Hane Ba its unique characteristics.
- Super-lightweight, only half the weight of an equivalent steel knife.
- Does not rust, not even in salt water.
- Safe: Hane Ba titanium is harmless and does not trigger allergies.
- Exceptionallly strong blade. While the metal carbide microparticles make the blade extremely resistant, titanium, the main component of Hane Ba alloy, is soft and easy to sharpen.
- Keeps its edge: the materials in Hane Ba guarantee 6 times netter wear resistance than steel blades, as demonstrated in tests performed by Catra in Britain.
- Powerful anti-bacterical action, thanks to titanium's phtocatalytic action and silver's ionising action, as demonstrated in tests performed by the Japan Food Research Laboratories.
