The stamped knives are cut into a shape from a cold rolled piece of steel and then ground, tempered, and sharpened. It requires many less steps than forging and results in a lighter, narrower blade. Stamped knives are easier to produce and therefore less expensive and can be re-sharpened over and over again. They perform very well and can approach the quality of a forged blade (but not the weight or feel). A stamped knife can usually be identified by the absence of a bolster. The patented Fibrox handles are hygienic, dishwasher safe and slip-resistant and are considered the greatest “value” knife range in the industry. This range is marketed to the professional trade under the RH Forschner Brand.
