Five Damascus blades finished with striking violet-blue pakkawood handles — the boldest set in the collection.
This five-piece set pairs folded Damascus steel with layered pakkawood handles in a deep violet-to-blue gradient — durable, water-resistant, and one-of-a-kind since every handle blank grains differently.
What's in the set:
- Slicer — 8.8" blade, 13" overall
- Large Chef's Knife — 7.5" blade, 11.6" overall
- Cleaver-Style Chopper — 7.6" blade, 11.7" overall
- Small Chef's Knife — 5.6" blade, 9.8" overall
- Utility Knife — 4.7" blade, 8.9" overall
The details: Damascus steel (58–62 HRC), forged and hand-finished, full tang construction. Pakkawood handles — engineered wood that resists water and won't crack like solid wood can. Hand wash, dry immediately, light coat of food-grade oil.
A gift worth giving: The color makes this set stand out from the usual wood-and-steel gift set — rolled in a leather case and ready to give for a birthday, housewarming, or “just because” for the cook who already has everything else.
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.
FAQ
Is this dishwasher safe? No — hand wash only, dry immediately, and apply a light coat of food-grade oil to protect the Damascus pattern.
Why pakkawood instead of solid wood? Pakkawood is resin-infused layered wood — more water- and crack-resistant than solid wood, while keeping a real wood grain look.
What does "full tang" mean, and why does it matter? The blade steel runs the full length of the handle in one solid piece rather than a separate tang inserted into the handle — it's what serious cooks and collectors look for, since it means better balance and a knife that won't loosen at the handle over years of use.
