Damascus Steel Starter Knife Set

An ideal knife starter set, this dynamic duo comprises two of our most popular knives in smaller, more nimble sizes. There’s a petite, 6-inch chef’s knife ideal for everyday slicing, dicing and mincing, plus a versatile serrated sandwich knife perfect for cutting crusty bread, sandwiches, tomatoes and bagels. (The latter has a round, broad, blade for spreading, too; it’s the knife equivalent of the everything bagel!) Both knives are forged from 67 layers of Japanese Damascus steel for a harder blade–a 60 Rockwell rating–and a sharper edge that stays sharp longer, for effortless slicing. What’s Included: 6-inch chef’s knife is a smaller, more agile chef’s knife for everyday prep. 5-inch sandwich knife has scalloped serrations designed to cut through the crispy, soft crust of breads and bagels, and effortlessly through delicate-skinned fruits and vegetables. Knives utilize the 3-step Honbazuke sharpening method–plus an advanced heat treatment to enhance hardness and corrosion resistance–resulting in a super-sharp, 12-degree edge. Arched design and amazing ergonomic grip features a unique green Pakkawood handle, infused with resin to increase resistance to moisture, cracking and splintering.
