Yes, but there is a problem with aluminum alloys that everyone cannot ignore. The aesthetics of aluminum alloys after surface treatment is much worse than that of zinc alloys, and the coloring performance of electroplating is worse than that of zinc alloy handles, especially some poor quality ones Aluminum alloy handle; usually the paint peels off within 1 year or there are defects on the product, such as cutting hands, because only the color of black can cover most of the product defects, so the color of this aluminum alloy handle is almost always black. Few other colors.
