It resists corrosion very well, a key factor when it will touch food or move through humid environments. Its hardness of 52\/53 HRc makes it easy to bring back a fine edge in just a few minutes with an ordinary stone or steel, so it will rarely be put out of action for lack of maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuild and solidity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eCudeman 444-BEF\u003c\/strong\u003e relies on a simple, robust assembly. The brass pins hold the scales firmly in place and convey that solid, one-piece feel of well-fitted knives. The satin finish on the blade, as well as lending a professional look, protects the metal from surface marks. As it is designed for cutting, you should avoid subjecting it to impacts or forced prying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHandle and feel in real use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 9.5 cm handle in red and yellow \u003cstrong\u003eMicarta\u003c\/strong\u003e fills the palm more generously than the small version.
