S 185-2TM
Description
The Dexter S185-2TM Sani-Safe® produce knife has a 4.5-inch stainless steel blade, making it durable for commercial applications. The Stiff Blade will handle even the toughest Produce.   An easy-to-clean, textured polypropylene handle is slip resistant for a safe, secure grip. To protect the user’s fingers, there is a Pronounced Finger Guard on the handle.
SELLERS NOTE ABOUT THIS HANDLE:
THIS IS THE S 185-2TM and is not listed in the product
catalog
on Dexter Russel's web site.  I do not believe it is a regular product they make, instead I believe it is a special customer order item.  If you look at the Last Photo in this listing, you will see the S 185 with a much smaller handle, that is the Knife that Dexter sells, (you can also see a photo of it at the bottom of this listing).  Dexter has taken the much heavier duty, large handle that they use for their butcher knives (because of the pronounced finger guard on the handle) and replaced the usual, small handle with it.  The S 185 retails for .45.  This knife, because of the Heavy Duty Handle, would retail for a few dollars more (IMHO).  The SANISAFE blade-to-handle seal eliminates a crevice that can capture food particles, which can prevent the growth of harmful bacteria.

This is a great opportunity to own a very unique knife with a high-quality handle that others cannot usually purchase.  And it's priced amazingly low!

This knife is new and unused but is stamped "factory seconds" and I bought it directly at the Dexter Russell Factory in the next town.  They save beauties like these  for vendors like me to retail.    As a seconds, it has MINOR (and I ean MINOR) scratches/blemishes.  That's all!  The blemishes are cosmetic ONLY and will not compromise the integrity of or the performance of the knife.  They will function EXACTLY as a FIRST QUALITY KNIFE would.  As a Commercial Grade, SaniSafe, this knife is solid, built to last and to withstand the rigors of a professional kitchen!
Its pretty Heavy Duty.

Stainless Steel
blades have lots of good points.
The steel is composed of at least 12% chromium which does one thing for the blade: it makes the blade able to resist rust and corrosion better than high carbon blades.
Stainless steel knife blades are generally tougher than high carbon blades.
Flavor Preservation: Stainless steel knives do not require any protective or non-stick coating so there is less chance of contaminating your food if you do use it for food preparation. Stainless steel also tends not to leach off its metallic properties onto your food.
Some discerning pallets sometimes can tell if the knife used in the preparation of the food was high carbon because it sometimes leaves that slight metallic taste.
Recyclable: Stainless steel is one of the most recyclable materials today.
Appearance: Stainless steel knives look good for a very long time. Less time used in maintaining the knife gives you more time to do what it is you like to do.

About Dexter-Russell, Inc.  Celebrating 200 Years!
Henry Harrington, a New England craftsman and inventor, established the first cutlery company in the United States on
June 18, 1818
in Southbridge, Massachusetts. Harrington manufactured surgical equipment and shoe knives, as well as well crafted firearms. As his cutlery line expanded, he gradually discontinued his firearm business. In
1884
, Harrington introduced the Dexter trade name. The Dexter line of fine kitchen and table cutlery soon gained a reputation for quality in America's homes and restaurants.
Another New Englander, John Russell, founded his Green River Works on
March 1, 1834
. After having made his fortune in the cotton industry, Russell, at age 37, turned his energies to the manufacturing of quality cutlery. He built his water powered factory on the banks of the Green River near Greenfield Massachusetts.
His first products, chisels and axe heads, were made from fine English steel of the type normally reserved for tableware. As the Green River works expanded its line to include knives, the company continued to use only the finest materials.
By paying much higher wages than English cutlers, Russell was able to attract skilled European craftsmen to his factory. With all the manufacturing operations consolidated under one roof, these skilled craftsmen were able to produce large quantities of high quality hunting knives to supply the needs of America?s western frontier.
On May 1, 1933
, the Harrington Cutlery Company and the John Russell Cutlery Company merged, bringing together the two most respected names in cutlery: Dexter and Russell. The new company, Russell Harrington Cutlery Company, offered a broad range of quality cutlery products from the famous knives that "won the west" to innovative cutlery for the professional and industrial markets. In
2001
, the company changed its name to Dexter-Russell, Inc. to reflect its long history of product brand identity.
Today
, the same tradition of quality and variety is carried on in Southbridge, Massachusetts, where Dexter-Russell produces the broadest line of professional cutlery made by any single manufacturer in the world.
