A forging process where the blade body is gradually thinned from 2mm to 1.35mm, achieves both incredible sharpness and a comfortable weight to the blade.

- Nitrogen-cooled for enhanced hardness, flexibility, and corrosion resistance.
- Featuring an exquisite, Feather blade pattern for striking, stand-out beauty.

- Ergonomic handle shape for superior hand control, agility, and comfort made from natural Ebony, sealed and cured by high-temperature wax to create a durable and glossy finish.
- Hidden tang for superb robustness and quality.
- Tested to meet razor-sharp standards below 100N (the average kitchen knife test has a sharpness of 210N).
Damascus and AUS10 blades are made from high-carbon steel with small amounts of chromium in the alloy. While high in carbon steel, the blade can show rust if not cared for. You should ensure to keep the blades clean and dry thoroughly to avoid rust or staining. Hand washes only.

We recommend using a whetstone to sharpen your knives.
We have a range on our website and also have some articles on our blog, which talk you through the best way to look after and sharpen your knives, including recommended angles, etc
Knives should never go in the dishwasher. Dishwasher detergent is very abrasive, and along with the banging around that happens during a wash cycle, will take the sharp edge right off your knife. The high heat can also damage the handle or misshape them. Always wash knives by hand in the sink with dish soap and water and dry after.
If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, within 30 days of placing your order, we will refund you for your purchase with no questions asked.
