Description

A thin blade flexes when you lean on it, and a flexing blade wanders off the line you meant to cut.

This wide chef knife has a 2.3 mm spine, enough steel to stay straight through a squash or a chicken joint without the dead weight of a cleaver. The blade is 40Cr13 stainless steel, tempered twice, so it takes a fine edge for everyday slicing and chopping.

The overall length is 12.5" (32 cm), so the handle clears the board and your knuckles stay above it. It suits vegetables and boneless meat. Hand-wash and dry it, and hone it when the edge starts pushing rather than parting.

Why the set

Steel tempered twice

40Cr13 is a stainless steel that can be brought to a fine edge. This blade goes through the tempering heat treatment twice, which balances hardness with toughness for regular prep. Hone it often, and sharpen it on a stone when honing no longer brings back the bite.

Steel tempered twice

Why the set

A wide, stiff blade

With a spine 2.3 mm thick, the blade resists flexing when you press down through a squash or across a chicken joint, so the cut follows your line. It is still a kitchen knife rather than a cleaver, made for vegetables and boneless meat instead of heavy butchery.

"Replaced a drawer of mismatched knives with this one block. The whole counter looks intentional now, and the chef knife glides through everything. The steak knives were the surprise — guests noticed."

Marcus T.Verified buyer1 month ago

"Three months of daily cooking and the edges still hold. The block sharpening is genuinely useful — I stopped reaching for a separate steel. Balanced, clean release, and it looks the part in white."

Priya S.Verified buyer1 month ago

"Beautiful set and the grip stays comfortable through long prep. The knives go straight into the dishwasher, and the block keeps every piece in order. The matched steak knives finish the set well."

Good to know

Questions, answered.

How does the self-sharpening block work?

The block has ceramic honing slots. As you draw a knife out or return it, the edge passes across the sharpener — maintaining day-to-day sharpness. For a full re-grind, use a whetstone a few times a year.

Are the knives dishwasher safe?

Yes. The knives and shears are dishwasher-safe. Secure them on the top rack and dry them fully before storage. Wipe the self-sharpening block clean and keep it out of the dishwasher.

What's the difference between Black and White?

Only the finish. Both are the same 16-piece high-carbon German steel set with the same block and board — choose the one that matches your counter.

When will it arrive?

Orders ship within 24 hours with tracked delivery, and the tracking code lands in your inbox. Delivery windows are calculated for your address at checkout.

How do returns work?

Open a return from your account within 30 days and a prepaid label is emailed to you. Refunds are issued within 3 business days of the set reaching our warehouse.
