CloseBoth knives are constructed from a single piece of high-tech CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, eliminating dirt traps for ultimate hygiene. The signature dimpled handles provide a comfortable, slip-resistant grip, while the hollow handles are filled with sand to achieve the perfect weight and balance.
Ice-tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56°–58°, these blades hold a steep, razor-sharp edge significantly longer than traditional steel. The steep 15° double-bevel edge is ground to a long taper rather than a short blocky bevel, ensuring effortless slicing through tough proteins and delicate vegetables alike.
To preserve the factory edge and the integrity of the steel, these knives must be hand-washed with mild dish soap and dried immediately. Never use a dishwasher, as high heat and harsh chemicals can dull the blade and cause pitting. Store in a dedicated knife block or on a magnetic rack to prevent edge damage.
The set includes the flagship 8-inch (20cm) G-2 Cook's Knife, the all-purpose workhorse of the kitchen, and the 4.25-inch (11cm) GS-1 Kitchen Knife, perfect for paring, peeling, and intricate prep work. Together, they cover approximately 90% of all daily cutting tasks.
