Know before you buy
The knife block features built-in ceramic honing wheels inside the specific slots for each knife. Every time you remove or replace a knife, the blade is automatically honed, ensuring it maintains its edge over time.
Yes, these knives are dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the sharpness and integrity of the stainless steel blades for as long as possible, we recommend hand washing and drying them immediately after use.
A full tang means the metal of the blade extends all the way through the handle. This provides better balance, increased durability, and a more stable feel while you are chopping or slicing.
The self-sharpening slots are specifically designed and calibrated for the knives included in this set. While other knives may physically fit in the block, they will not benefit from the self-sharpening mechanism and could potentially damage the honing wheels.
These knives are designed to be lightweight, making them easy to maneuver for everyday tasks. They are ideal for home cooks who prefer a nimble, agile tool over the heavier weight of traditional forged cutlery.
The stained ash wood base and stainless steel cap are easy to maintain with a simple wipe-down using a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the block in water or using harsh chemical cleaners to preserve the wood finish.
