Know before you buy
No, these knives are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the high-carbon stainless steel and the handle construction, we recommend hand washing and drying them immediately after use.
The forged safety bolster acts as a transition point between the handle and the blade. It provides a comfortable resting spot for your fingers, improves balance, and adds a layer of protection to prevent your hand from slipping toward the blade.
The set includes a comprehensive assortment designed to cover all kitchen tasks, typically featuring a chef's knife, slicing knife, serrated bread knife, santoku knife, utility knife, paring knife, and a set of steak knives, all housed in a storage block.
While the high-carbon stainless steel is designed for long-lasting sharpness, you should hone the blades regularly with a sharpening steel to keep the edges aligned. Avoid cutting on glass or stone surfaces, which can dull the blades prematurely.
Yes, the handles feature an ergonomic design and triple-rivet construction. This setup is intended to provide a secure, balanced grip that reduces hand fatigue during extended chopping or slicing tasks.
