Quince Japanese Damascus Steel Knife Set

This set includes three essential kitchen tools: an 8-inch chef's knife for general chopping, a 6-inch utility knife for versatile prep work, and a 3.5-inch paring knife for detailed tasks like peeling or trimming.

AUS-10 is a high-carbon Japanese stainless steel known for its ability to hold a very sharp edge. With a Rockwell hardness rating of 60-62, these blades offer the ideal balance between edge retention and durability.

No, these knives must be hand-washed and dried immediately after use. The high-quality steel and Pakkawood handles can be damaged by the harsh detergents and high heat of a dishwasher.

Full tang construction means the steel of the blade extends all the way through the handle. This provides superior balance, stability, and structural integrity compared to knives where the blade is only partially attached.

To maintain the razor-sharp edge, we recommend using a honing steel regularly to realign the blade and a whetstone or professional sharpening service when the edge eventually dulls. Avoid cutting on glass, stone, or ceramic surfaces, as these will dull the blade quickly.

Pakkawood is a composite material that offers the aesthetic of natural wood with the durability of a synthetic. It is moisture-resistant and contoured to provide a comfortable, ergonomic grip that reduces hand fatigue during extended prep sessions.
