Stabilized plane wood is a material increasingly used in high-end cutlery. This is a stabilization technique in which platane wood is impregnated with resin under vacuum, making it more resistant, durable and less sensitive to climatic changes. The result is a composite material that preserves the natural beauty of wood while offering greater resistance to moisture, impact and wear.
In the cutlery sector, stabilized plane wood is used to manufacture knife handles. Knifemakers appreciate this material for its strength, pleasant texture and unique aesthetic appeal. The variations in color and pattern in stabilized plane wood make for unique pieces, turning every knife handle into a work of art.
Thanks to its improved properties, stabilized plane wood offers knives a longer service life, protecting them from external conditions and frequent handling. Ultimately, it enables knifemakers to create knives that are functional, aesthetically pleasing and durable, making stabilized platinum an increasingly popular choice in the high-end cutlery industry.
