Tarrerias Bonjean created a new material from titanium carbide, one of the hardest metals, after diamond, on Earth. Using a state-of-the-art laser at 7,000 degrees F., the company fuses this ultra-solid material onto stainless steel to create the cutting edge of the blade. This process allows for a combination of stainless steel's flexibility with the durability of titanium carbide, resulting in an un- breakable, everlasting cutting edge.
