Nomenclature

Every good knife to be such must be hardened in order to give the blade the necessary hardness to cut it effectively and for a long time. A hardened blade, because it lasts, despite the tempering treatment to which it is subjected to reduce internal tensions, maintains a certain degree of fragility, so if subjected to inappropriate or excessive use, it can break. It can also break due to falling if it takes a sharp blow. In particular, well-hardened knives will not tolerate excessive bending or twisting efforts.
To guide yourself in choosing the most suitable knife for your needs, it is good to know that:

- The full tang handle knives are more robust than the half tang handle knives.

- The full tang handle knives are less robust than the anchored whole handle knives.
