Ours knives have three layers of Japanese stainless steel and high carbon for unmatched strength and easy-to-care-for resilience. At finishing, each knife is heat-treated at 300F before it's cryogenically tempered at -250F, altering the structure of the steel on a molecular level, making it harder, sharper, and more durable.
Our blade is a full tang: it extends into the handle so it won't break under pressure and weight is better distributed. The result? An even balance at the bolster for that “feels just right in your hand” sensation.
We integrated the classic oval shape of Japanese handles into our design but used an innovative, stain-resistant composite in a matte finish to make ours firm and slightly grippy, for safe and confident chopping.
Smart storage is also key to a long knife life, which is why we designed The Stand to preserve and show off our knives. The hidden magnet means that you won’t dull your blades by sliding your knives into the slits in those clunky traditional knife blocks. It’s also much easier to clean.
Magnetized walls on both sides of The Stand allow storage of up to eight knives of varying sizes. It is heavy enough to be sturdy, keeping your knives stowed safely, and is made exclusively with FSC-certified wood.
These knives are super sharp and look the part in the kitchen. The handles have a nice weight to them.
After procrastinating for years, I decided to buy a new set of knives. I followed Samin Nosrat's website's recommendation, and chose The Trio. What a pleasure to use in the kitchen: sleek design, perfect weight, and very sharp. I love them! Highly recommend.
They are truly very sharp! I love how light they feel at the same time.
So beautiful and fast shipping!!
I am very pleased…. Not only does the stand hold Material knives, it holds my other knives as well! Easily accessible!!
