Product Information
Full details
The Alpina Deluxe 3-Piece Kitchen Knife Set is designed for home cooks of all skill levels who need reliable, everyday cutting tools for meal preparation. Its key benefit is the combination of precision-crafted blades and ergonomic, non-slip handles that provide superior control and comfort during slicing and dicing tasks. While these knives offer excellent balance and versatility, they require hand washing and immediate drying to ensure the blades remain sharp and free from rust, making them less suitable for those who prefer the convenience of dishwasher-safe cutlery.

FAQs
Are these knives dishwasher safe?
No, it is highly recommended that you hand wash these knives to protect the integrity of the blades and handles.
What is the best way to sharpen these knives?
You can use a traditional sharpening stone or a manual pull-through knife sharpener designed for stainless steel blades.
Can I use these on glass cutting boards?
It is not recommended. Glass cutting boards are very hard and can quickly dull the sharp edge of your knives. Wood or plastic boards are preferred.
What is the material of the blades?
The blades are crafted from high-quality stainless steel designed for durability and precision cutting.
Does the set come with a warranty?
Please refer to the documentation included with your specific purchase or the retailer's policy for details on the manufacturer's warranty.
Troubleshooting
Blade feels dull during use
Use a standard sharpening steel or stone to hone the blade edge, as regular use will naturally blunt the metal over time.
Surface spots appear on the blade
This is likely caused by moisture remaining on the surface. Use a stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water to gently buff the spots away, then dry thoroughly.
Handle feels slippery
Ensure the handle is free from grease or food residue. Wash with warm, soapy water and dry completely to restore the effectiveness of the non-slip coating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required; the knives are ready for use immediately upon unboxing. Because these knives are crafted for high-performance cutting, proper maintenance is essential for their longevity:
- Washing: Always hand wash the blades using a mild detergent and warm water.
- Drying: Avoid air-drying. Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe the blades down immediately after washing to prevent moisture buildup.
- Storage: To protect the blade edges, store them in a knife block or a dedicated magnetic rack rather than a loose drawer.
- Maintenance: Regularly hone the blades to keep the edges sharp for optimal cutting efficiency.
