**NEW** Metal Detectable
Professional Catering Knives
|
Detectamet can offer
you a very extensive
range of
Professional Knives
and Accessories for
use in the Catering,
Food Processing and
Industrial Markets
worldwide.
All the knives are
made from fully
hardened and
tempered stainless
steel to ensure
maximum edge
retention. All
knives are available
with fully metal
detectable handles,
available in Blue,
Green, Yellow and
Red and with a
choice of blade and
handle types.
Detectamet range of
professional knife
blades
Lets start with the
raw material; the
steel, which is
used. A high carbon
stainless steel that
ensures the benefit
in appearance of
stainless is coupled
with the hardness
and edge retention
properties that the
carbon content
provides.
Next, there is the
heat treatment
process which has
been developed over
many years. This,
along with the
grinding process, is
the real secret of
the knife. The steel
must be strong
enough to ensure
that the fine
cutting edge is
maintained for the
longest possible
duration, and when
eventually the edge
needs revitalising
it can easily
accomplished using a
sharpening steel.
Finally, there are
the blade Edge
scallops. The series
of small scallops
that make up the
blade Edge are
ground alternately
on each side of the
blade by hand with
great precision.
This ensures that
each knife performs
perfectly for the
longest possible
time by retaining a
fine, razor sharp
cutting edge for far
longer than a
traditional
plain
edge knife.
The scallops also
provide an
additional benefit
in that air is
allowed to enter
between the blade
and the cut product,
enabling the cut
slice to fall away
from the knife and
not stick to it.
The blade Edge is
available on any
knife, but most
popular on the Ham,
Beef and Salmon
slicer knives |
|
ECC/Detectamet Plain
Edge Knives
The
traditional Plain
Edge knife is
manufactured with
over 400 years of
experience in knife
making. The steel
used, coupled with
the heat treatment
process, ensures a
fine, durable long
lasting edge.
Each production run
is hardness tested
as part of our
stringent quality
control system, this |
 |
ensures that each knife will
perform to its maximum
capability.
The Plain
edge range is used
extensively in the meat
processing industry where a
long lasting fine edge is
vital to ensure that maximum
yields are achieved on the
production line.
|
Detectamet Scalloped Edge
Knives
To complement the
traditional range of Plain
Edge knives, we have
introduced the Wavy or
Scalloped Cutting Edge. This
provides 40% more cutting
edge in contact with the
product than with a
traditional plain edge
knife.
Made to the same exacting
standards, the Wavy Edge
|
 |
|
provides the perfect cutting
edge profile for cutting
items such as bread, gateaux
and pastry products. The
edge requires no sharpening,
so is ideal for fast food
outlets, busy canteens and
restaurants. |
|
Detectamet Pallet
Knives
The Detectamet range of
professional knives include
a range of Palette Knives
which are manufactured in
the traditional way; by
fully grinding the entire
length of the blade. This
process takes years of
experience. It is vital to
remove just the right amount
of material in order to
ensure the correct amount of
flexibility is achieved. At
one time this process was
all done by hand. Nowadays,
we have sophisticated
grinding machines to ensure
our exacting tolerances are
maintained.
The test when choosing a
Palette Knife is to press
the blade onto a firm
surface. It should bend from
the middle of the blade, not
near the handle. Keep
pushing the blade so it is
at 90 degrees to the
handle. A Palette knife in
the Detectamet range has the
flexibility to allow it to
return to a dead straight
"rest" position time and
time again.
Detectamet Professional
Knives - Handles available
On the vast majority
of the knives included in
the Detectamet range, three
handle types are available.
|
The Regular Handle
- standard,
polypropylene metal
detectable handle,
originally designed
for holding the
knife safely and
comfortably for long
periods. |
|
The Ergo handle
- polypropylene
metal detectable
handle, developed
for the professional
user who uses knives
all day, our
research and
development team
worked with various
food processing
companies to develop
this innovative
handle, the
resulting design
provides the
following benefits;
-
Double tapered
design,
ergonomically
designed to
reduce stress to
hand and wrist
-
Contoured thumb
platform and
rounded blade
back for added
comfort
|
|
| |
|
|
The Ergo Safety
Handle
- polypropylene
metal detectable
handle, this is a
hybrid version of
the Ergo described
above, but it has a
much longer finger
guard to protect the
fingers and reduce
the chance of
injury.
All handles are
insert moulded from
metal detectable
polypropylene
co-polymer.
