Know before you buy
No, these knives should be hand-washed and dried immediately. The natural Acacia wood handles can crack or warp if exposed to the high heat and moisture of a dishwasher.
A full tang means the steel blade extends all the way through the handle. This provides superior balance, weight, and structural integrity, ensuring the knife feels sturdy and secure in your hand while cutting.
Because these knives are crafted from 1.4116 German Stainless Steel with a hardness of 59 HRC, they hold an edge exceptionally well. With regular use, you should only need to hone them occasionally and sharpen them once or twice a year.
To keep the wood looking its best and prevent it from drying out, it is recommended to occasionally apply a food-safe mineral oil to the handles. Avoid soaking them in water to maintain the integrity of the wood.
The patented design features a unique curvature that aligns with the natural grip of your hand. This ergonomic shape provides better leverage and control, reducing slippage and making it easier to slice through thicker cuts of meat.
