Features and Benefits

  • A person in an apron is meticulously chopping herbs on a wooden cutting board in a kitchen setting.

    Supreme Precision

    The VG10 Core has a higher carbon content so your knife stays sharper for longer. The 66-layer Damascus pattern ensures no two blades are the same.

  • Sliced eggplants and a kitchen knife are arranged on a wooden cutting board.

    Easy to Handle

    The hand-finished polymer handle is both slip- and stain-resistant, making it even easier to use.

  • A person's hands are slicing a red cabbage with a knife on a wooden cutting board.

    Full Tang

    Crafted from a single rod of metal, a full tang knife offers more balance and fewer weak points.

Praise For Made In Knives

  • "We were impressed by the knives’ even weight distribution, full-tang and fully-forged construction... and the precision."
