The forging process Arcos has employed for decades is key to creating solid, strong, and robust pieces that withstand the first heavy use and the test of time, whether in kitchens, production lines, or specialty shops. Understanding the value of a forged knife helps explain why so many professionals choose Arcos year after year.
Arcos tempering and annealing: the real reason our knives cut sharper and last much longer
