The Story of Ink Plums

Brand Names: "Ink" symbolizes Chinese ink painting, while "Plums" represents the plum blossom. This brand is inspired by the painting "Mo Mei," created by the renowned Yuan dynasty painter, Wang Mian. The painting praises the plum blossom's virtues without seeking praise, and our brand, "Ink Plum," aims to emulate this spirit. We may not be the best now, but we are committed to providing customers with excellent and high-quality products.

Plum Blossom: In the midst of snow and ice, the plum blossom blooms with pride. The greater the wind and snow, the more gorgeous it becomes. The colder the weather, the more fragrant it is. Its resilience represents confidence, fortitude, and tenacity - qualities that we strive to embody.

Steel: We chose the plum blossom to represent our brand because its blooming process mirrors the manufacturing process of a quality knife. After the steel has been tempered, its impurities are removed, and it becomes harder and sharper, just like the beautiful plum blossoms that emerge from the harsh conditions.

Best Wish: Our Chinese logo "Mei" is also inspired by the great calligrapher, Zhao Meng Fu. We have added a seal in the top left corner, symbolizing our vision to create a brand that will be passed down for generations due to the quality of our knives.

The Ink Plums 8" Chef Knife: The 8" Chef Knife's steel core is made of professional 50CR13 super steel, which helps it withstand friction. This is enhanced by intense heat treatment, resulting in a Rockwell hardness of up to 57 HRC. The double-bevel edge suits both right-handed and left-handed users, and the 14-16° edge angle ensures a sharp, efficient cut.

Premium Materials of the Handle: The polished Brazilian rosewood handle provides a pleasant and comfortable grip, with a high-quality feel and perfect curvature for maximum comfort and operability, making it well-suited for the kitchen.

Double Fixed Design: The double reinforcement design inside the handle, with a screw and nut structure, and the use of stainless steel at the tail, ensure the handle is securely attached and prevents it from loosening or falling off.

Master Handmade: Each of our knives is heated to a softened state by a master and beaten by external force several times to form the required structure. This process, which generally takes 2 to 4 weeks, ensures high hardness, toughness, and wear and impact resistance, resulting in superior mechanical properties.
