Know before you buy
These knives are forged from German X50CrMoV15 high-carbon steel. This material is specifically chosen for its excellent edge retention and resistance to corrosion.
No, these knives are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the forged steel and the acacia wood handles, you should hand wash and dry them immediately after use.
Full tang means the metal of the blade extends all the way through the handle. This design provides superior balance, stability, and durability compared to knives where the blade is only partially inserted into the handle.
Yes, this is a comprehensive 23-piece set that covers virtually every kitchen task. It includes a variety of prep knives, eight steak knives, kitchen shears, and a honing steel to keep your edges sharp.
The Ultra6 heat treatment process is a specialized method that optimizes the steel's molecular structure. This results in a blade that is harder, more durable, and capable of holding a sharper edge for a longer period.
NSF certification indicates that these knives meet rigorous public health and safety standards. It confirms the materials are food-safe and the construction is designed to prevent the buildup of bacteria.
