Know before you buy
No, these knives are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the high-carbon German steel and the ergonomic handles, we recommend hand-washing and drying them immediately after use.
The set includes a vegetable cleaver, a santoku knife, a meat cleaver, a paring knife, a honing steel, and kitchen shears, all housed in a solid acacia wood block.
These knives are hand-sharpened to a 16-degree angle and feature high-carbon steel for excellent edge retention. While they stay sharp longer than standard blades, you should use the included honing steel regularly to maintain the edge and sharpen them professionally or with a stone as needed.
NSF certification indicates that these knives meet strict public health and safety standards. This ensures the materials are non-toxic and the design minimizes areas where bacteria or food particles could accumulate.
Yes, the L1 Series features patented ergonomic handles designed to provide a secure and comfortable grip for a variety of hand sizes. The balance of the forged construction helps reduce fatigue during extended prep work.
To keep the acacia wood block in good condition, wipe it down with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid submerging it in water, and occasionally apply a food-safe mineral oil to prevent the wood from drying out.
