With the right knives, the feast starts before the first bite
A professional blade
A strong blade makes a lifelong companion. That’s why we chose top-quality German stainless steel called X50CrMoV15. And we didn’t stop there, forging each knife from a single piece of steel, full-tang. This means that each knife is made from a single piece of steel from the tip of the blade to the end of the handle. The result is a knife that feels sturdy and perfectly balanced — it’s a game changer.
Nothing stands in its way
The steel is rated 58HRC, the perfect balance between strength and longevity. The blade has a 30° cutting angle, so each cut is quick, clean and controlled. Whether you’re chopping chives, jointing a Sunday chicken, finely slicing a carpaccio of sea bream, or taking on a butternut squash, each product will thank you.
Feels great to handle
A sturdy knife is one thing, but a knife that’s a pleasure to use is quite another. We’ve designed an angled bolster that follows the curve of the blade for a safer, more comfortable experience. It makes prep feels almost indulgent - you’ll enjoy every minute.
Made in Portugal
We tracked down one of Portugal’s finest knife makers. For over 70 years, they’ve crafted thousands of knives every year — the sort of knowledge you can’t replicate. The Chef’s Knife alone passes through 23 stages of production, most done by hand. Every detail is important, and when you’re passionate about something you go that extra distance.
Your questions, answered
What’s a fully forged, full-tang knife?
A fully forged, full-tang knife is one that’s forged from a single piece of steel with the blade extending from the tip of the blade to the very end of the handle. Our Chef’s Knife is crafted this way, making it one of the most well-made and long-lasting tools you’ll ever own.
Everything you need to know about what makes a knife full-tang is right here.
When and how should I sharpen my knife?
It all depends how you use it. For most people, sharpening your Chef’s Knife twice a year is plenty. To set you on the right path, we’ll happily sharpen your knife once a year for the first two years.

How do the Chef’s Knife, Santokus and Nakiris differ?
The chef's knife is the most versatile knife in your kitchen. If you could only have one, this should be it. Perfect for mincing, slicing, chopping, and dicing meat, fish, vegetables, and fruit.
Nakiri and Santoku knives, both Japanese, differ in that the Nakiri has a straight blade and the Santoku has a curved blade. Nakiri knives are perfect for precise cuts of vegetables and make them easy to pick up. Santoku knives, more versatile, excel at slicing and dicing.
The choice between the two depends on your personal preferences and needs: the Santoku for greater versatility, the Nakiri for precise vegetable cutting.
