Why do kitchen knives break easily?

May 18, 2024

The reasons why kitchen knives are prone to chipping may involve many factors. Here are some of the main factors:


1. Toughness and hardness of steel: The toughness of steel refers to its resistance to breaking when subjected to a force that causes it to deform, while the hardness determines the sharpness and retention of the knife. If the toughness of the steel is insufficient, the blade will be more brittle and prone to chipping. Too high hardness may also lead to chipping, because there is often a certain contradiction between hardness and toughness. Steel with too high hardness may have poor toughness.


2. Forging process and heat treatment level: These processes have a vital impact on the performance of the knife. Poor forging or improper heat treatment can result in uneven stress distribution within the steel, increasing the risk of chipping.


3. Cutting method and cutting edge design: If the cutting angle is too small or the cutting edge is too thin, the tool may easily chip during use. In addition, unreasonable cutting edge design, such as too large an angle or too sharp edge shape, may also lead to chipping.


4. User skills and habits: When using a knife, if you have improper skills or bad habits, such as excessive force, improper angle, etc., it may cause chipping. In addition, if the object is not suitable or the tool is abused, the possibility of chipping will also increase.

To sum up, to prevent kitchen knives from chipping, it is necessary to comprehensively consider and optimize many aspects such as steel selection, forging process, heat treatment, cutting method, edge design and usage skills. At the same time, users should also pay attention to correct usage methods and techniques when using knives to avoid abuse or misuse that may lead to chipping.
