Grunwerg specialise in both stamped and forged cutlery patterns, also offer both 18/10 and 18/0 Stainless Steel varieties. Read below for details on the differences. Continuing in endeavours for sustainability, all Grunwerg’s cutlery is packaged as environmentally friendly as possible. A stamped piece of cutlery begins as a ribbon of steel, which is then punched, or cut out into shape. They are then tempered, sharpened, and finished. This process is generally handled by machines. Whilst traditionally stamped cutlery was of a lower quality, and indeed stamped cutlery is often thinner and lighter than forged cutlery, it is not always the case as improvements are always being made in the world of technology. Forged cutlery is produced when a steel bar is heated up to a very high temperature, set into a die and hammered to form the blade. It is then tempered, sharpened, and finished. Forging is one of the oldest methods of constructing using hand craftsmanship to produce a strong piece of cutlery. 18/10 cutlery contains 18% Chromium and 10% Nickel percentages. 18/0 cutlery contains the same level of Chromium, but without the Nickel. Nickel adds rust resistance. durability and a high-shine finish. Enhance your dinner party table with Samba 18/0 stainless steel cutlery set from Grunwerg.
