fully metal detectable handles,
available in Blue, Green, Yellow
and Red and with a choice of
blade and handle types.
Detectamet range
of professional knife blades
Let’s start with the raw
material; the steel, which is
used. 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.
Finally, there are the blade
Edge scallops. The series of
small scallops that make up the
blade Edge are ground
alternately on each side of the
blade by hand with great
precision. This ensures that
each knife performs perfectly
for the longest possible time by
retaining a fine, razor sharp
cutting edge for far longer than
a traditional plain edge knife.
The scallops also provide an
additional benefit in that air
is allowed to enter between the
blade and the cut product,
enabling the cut slice to fall
away from the knife and not
stick to it.
The blade Edge is available on
any knife, but most popular on
the Ham, Beef and Salmon slicer
knives

ECC/Detectamet
Plain Edge Knives
The
traditional Plain Edge
knife is manufactured
with over 400 years of
experience in knife
making. The steel used,
coupled with the heat
treatment process,
ensures a fine, durable
long lasting edge.
Each
production run is
hardness tested as part
of our stringent quality
control system, this |
|
ensures that each
knife will perform to its
maximum capability.
The Plain
edge range is used extensively
in the meat processing industry
where a long lasting fine edge
is vital to ensure that maximum
yields are achieved on the
production line.
Detectamet Professional Knives -
Handles available
On the vast majority
of the knives included in the
Detectamet range, three handle
types are available.
The Regular Handle
- standard, polypropylene metal
detectable handle, originally
designed for holding the knife
safely and comfortably for long
periods.
The Ergo handle
- polypropylene metal detectable
handle, developed for the
professional user who uses
knives all day, our research and
development team worked with
various food processing
companies to develop this
innovative handle, the resulting
design provides the following
benefits;
-
Double tapered design,
ergonomically designed to
reduce stress to hand and
wrist
-
Contoured thumb platform and
rounded blade back for added
comfort
The Ergo Safety Handle
- polypropylene metal detectable
handle, this is a hybrid version
of the Ergo described above, but
it has a much longer finger
guard to protect the fingers and
reduce the chance of injury.
All handles are insert moulded
from metal detectable
polypropylene co-polymer.
