FAQs
What material are the blades made of?
The blades are crafted from durable high-carbon stainless steel.
How does the Black Oxide finish benefit the knives?
The Black Oxide treatment provides extreme corrosion and rust resistance, helping to maintain the knife's premium color and longevity.
Are the knives dishwasher safe?
No, hand washing with mild soap and water is recommended to preserve the blade's sharpness and the Black Oxide finish. Always dry thoroughly.
Can I use these knives for heavy-duty chopping?
The hollow ground blade construction makes them strong and durable for kitchen cutting needs, including chopping. However, for extremely heavy-duty or boning tasks, specialized knives might be more suitable.
What is included in the 6-piece set?
The set includes six knives, each with a matching blade protective sheath, covering essential cutting, slicing, and paring tasks.
How do I store the knives safely?
Always store knives in their included protective sheaths when not in use. This protects the blades and prevents accidental cuts.
Are the handles ergonomic?
The handles are designed with soft material for a comfortable and lightweight grip, intended for most users.
Troubleshooting
Knife appears dull after initial use.
Although professionally sharpened, some initial use may be required to break in the blade. For immediate sharpness, use a honing steel or a knife sharpener.
Rust or corrosion spots appearing on the blade.
Ensure knives are dried thoroughly immediately after washing. If spots appear, gently scrub with a non-abrasive cleaner and re-dry. The Black Oxide finish is highly resistant but not entirely immune to prolonged moisture.
Handle feels uncomfortable or slippery.
Try a different grip technique. If the issue persists, consider using gloves for added comfort or exploring alternative knife options designed for larger hands.
Protective sheath is difficult to remove or attach.
Ensure the blade is completely dry before inserting into the sheath. Gentle wiggling might help seat it properly. If a sheath is damaged, contact customer support for a replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
This knife set requires no assembly. Upon receiving the set, remove the knives from their packaging and check that each knife has its protective sheath. Ensure the sheaths are securely in place before handling.
Compatibility:
These knives are designed for general cutting, slicing, paring, and other food preparation tasks. They are compatible with standard cutting boards.
Care:
- Cleaning: Hand wash all knives with warm water and mild soap immediately after use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the Black Oxide finish. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- Storage: Store knives in their protective sheaths when not in use or when transporting. Avoid storing knives loose in a drawer, as this can damage the blades and pose a safety risk.
- Sharpening: While the blades are professionally sharpened, they will eventually require honing or sharpening. Use a whetstone or a dedicated knife sharpener. For the Black Oxide finish, avoid harsh sharpening methods that could scratch the surface.
