We've been running these through our kitchen for about six months now, and the edge holds up noticeably better than the stamped stuff we used before—that 50Cr15MoV steel at HRC 56-58 actually does what it says, and the mirror polish makes cleaning quick with just hot water and a mild detergent.
The 3mm blade thickness and 15-20 degree edge angle give you good balance between stiffness and sharpness, but don't expect it to handle heavy bone chopping or frozen stuff without chipping—it's really a prep knife, not a cleaver, and wenge wood handle will crack if you leave it soaking in water overnight or run it through a dishwasher.
We usually have stock on the 13.5cm and 17.5cm sizes, but the mid-length 15.5cm can take 20 days or so to ship if you're ordering above 500 units; MOQ is 100 pieces per model, and customiztion on the logo or handle color adds roughly two weeks to lead time.
One thing you might not think to ask: the wenge wood is pretty oily naturally, so it doesn't need much conditioning, but if you're in a dry climate (below 30% RH), we've seen teh handles develop small suface cracks after a year or so—just rub on mineral oil every few months and it's fine.
Basically, for a mid-range forged line at this price point, the edge retention is better than most 420HC options we've tested, and the FDA and LFGB certs mean you're covered for export to Europe or North America without extra paperwork—just ask for the COA on each batch if your QA team needs HPLC or hardness test results.
The MOQ is 100 pieces total. You can mix different blade lengths within that batch — just let us know the breakdown when you place the order.
It's consistent at HRC 56-58 for every knife in the DS-2654 series, regardless of blade length. We test each batch to ensure it stays within that range.
Yes, we include certificates for FDA, LFGB, and ISO 9001 with every wholesale order. Just request them in your order notes.
Custom logo orders usually take 20-30 days from confirmation. For 500 pieces, expect closer to 25 days — we'll confirm a precise timeline after you approve the artwork.
Yes, the handles are treated with a food-safe mineral oil finish before packaging. This helps prevent cracking and keeps the wood looking good during storage.
