David Mellor Knife Set

No, these knives are not dishwasher safe. The natural rosewood handles require hand washing and immediate drying to maintain their integrity and prevent the wood from cracking or warping.

This curated set includes four essential tools designed to cover the majority of kitchen prep tasks, ranging from a compact paring knife for detailed work to a versatile chef's knife for general chopping and slicing.

To keep the wood in top condition, avoid soaking the knives in water. Periodically applying a food-safe mineral oil to the handles will help nourish the wood and preserve its natural luster.

Yes, the included wooden box is specifically designed to act as a secure, permanent storage solution. It keeps the blades separated and protected from damage, which is much safer than storing them loose in a drawer.

Martensitic steel is chosen for its ability to be hardened through heat treatment, allowing the blades to achieve a very sharp, durable edge. It balances edge retention with the flexibility needed for precision cutting.
