Frequently asked questions
Does the Titanium Nitride coating enhance the instrument's longevity?
Yes, absolutely. The black Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating is a key feature that serves two primary purposes: it adds a protective layer to the stainless steel for increased durability and creates a smoother operational surface. This combination often leads to less wear and tear, effectively minimizing the frequency of required sharpening over the instrument’s lifespan.
