C) Technology 

We mainly use stainless steels and woods of the highest density obtained from renewable forests. We achieve consistency in the quality of our products through permanent analitical monitoring of steels at the INTI (National Institute of Industrial Technology) of Argentina: https//www.inti.gob.ar/. While the wood of our handles has been examined by the Thuenen Institute of Wood Research of Germany: https://www.thuenen.de/en/hf/.
The stainless steels used are free of contaminants so they are suitable for food contact.
The top-notch quality of our cutlery, like hardness of the blades allows the flat cross section, which guarantees high precision and durable cutting edges (see below*).
Design details for the SEIGEN® blade include an innovative hawk and it drop that allows easy pressure with the index finger when performing any sort of task. Likewise, it sets the sharpening limit (how far the blade should be sharpened) and, also, when observing the sheathed knife, the drop sets out the blade's case. The drop keeps the blade from jamming as it meets with the case's opening.

*As shown in the picture, our design finishes the grind at 0.03" from the edge. In merit to hardness, this edge is highly sharp and durable and can be easily replaced by sharpening.

FAQ's about our testings

​

Why do we certify hardness?

The hardness guarantees the toughness and long-lasting of the cutting edge. Through the INTI analyzes we discard the blades of low hardness.

Why do we certify steel?

AISI 440 and 420 are the most excellent in cutlery. Through INTI analyzes we discard low-cost adulterated steels.

Why do we certify food safety?

The contamination of steels with heavy metals such as arsenic, mercury, lead and others is a high health risk, especially for children. Through INTI analyzes, we discard steels that contain dangerous levels of heavy metals.

How much does it cost the buyer these certifications?

None of these highly specialized studies is charged in the cost of the product.
