LC200N Service Temperature

[Vamais]

I've been using my LC200N Catcherman on food for some time now. It works great for that, given its length and thin blade. I don't worry about getting juices in the pivot, as I can rinse the pivot area without concern for corrosion.

I started baking bread, and I am wondering if cutting fresh breads with my Catcherman (internal temperature abt. 150 to 200 F) will be detrimental to the temper. @sal should I be worried about this?

Nah.

Is there a lower temperature limit where this alloy would become dangerously brittle, like in severe Arctic type temperatures?

Here's an LC200N / Z-Finit datasheet.
https://www.alphaknifesupply.com/Pictur ... 00N-DS.pdf
Heat treatment is on page 2.
The *lowest* tempering temperature in the table is 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit).
That's well above the temperature of your bread.

That means it would break down on Venus where the surface temperature is much hotter?

"Venus has the hottest surface of any planet in the solar system, with a mean surface temperature of 464°C (867°F).
Temperature Overview
Average Temperature: Typically cited between 460°C and 470°C (860°F to 878°F).
Extreme Ranges: Temperatures can reach up to 480°C (900°F) in deep depressions and drop to approximately 380°C (716°F) at high-altitude mountain peaks like Maxwell Montes."

Probably the Sun too which is my favorite planet. I like it because it's like the king of planets.

The Sun is a star - Jupiter is the king of planets.

On a side note anyone know the HRC of a baguette?
