Steel & Hardness
Blade steel: Damascus Steel
Hardness: 58 to 62 HRC (Rockwell scale)

Dimensions & Weight
Exact measurements for this piece are being added — reach out and we're happy to confirm dimensions before you order.
Care & Maintenance
Hand wash only with warm water and mild soap, and dry immediately — never leave a blade soaking or run it through a dishwasher. Wipe on a light coat of food-grade mineral oil after use to protect the steel, and store it dry in a sheath, knife roll, or on a magnetic strip. A few seconds of care after each use keeps a hand-forged edge true for decades.
Personalisation & Engraving
Make it truly yours — we can engrave a name, date, monogram, or graphic on most of our blades using a 50-watt fiber laser for crisp, permanent detail.
Simply send us your engraving details by email after placing your order and we'll take care of the rest.

Every order ships tracked across Canada and the USA, with free shipping on orders over $150. In-stock pieces leave the shop within a few business days; made-to-order pieces take a little longer, and we'll keep you posted along the way.

About this piece
A 2-piece culinary set pairing a full-size chef's knife with a shorter utility knife — the everyday-workhorse duo for anyone who wants Damascus quality without a full block. Both blades are hand-forged from folded Damascus steel, shaped to reveal a flowing ladder-pattern grain along the full length of each blade.
Each knife is finished with a polished stainless steel bolster and a fine copper accent ring, then a distinct handle: the chef's knife pairs warm wood with a marbled dark green resin butt, while the utility knife carries a bold swirled green-and-yellow resin handle from bolster to butt — a striking, colorful pairing that still reads as one considered set.
The details: Damascus steel (58–62 HRC) — hand-forged layered steel folded to reveal a flowing ladder-pattern grain, no two blades alike. Full tang construction, polished stainless steel bolsters with copper accent ring. Chef's knife: wood-and-green-resin handle. Utility knife: swirled green-and-yellow resin handle. Includes a leather sheath for each blade. Hand wash, dry immediately, light coat of food-grade oil.
A gift worth giving: The everyday pairing — a chef's knife for the big jobs and a utility knife for everything else — finished with color and detailing that stand out on any counter. A strong pick for a cook who wants their daily-use knives to feel as good as their special-occasion ones.
Every piece leaves the forge ready for a lifetime of use — our Knife Care guide covers the few simple habits that keep a hand-forged edge that way.
