MATERIAL Knife Trio + Stand
MATERIAL Knife Trio + Stand
JAPANESE STEEL KNIVES: Three layers of Japanese stainless steel and high carbon for unmatched strength and easy-to-care-for resilience. RAZOR EDGE: At finishing, each knife is heat-treated at 300F before it's cryogenically tempered at -250F. This alters the structure of the steel on a molecular level, making it harder, sharper, and more durable. PERFECTLY BALANCED: 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. SMART STORAGE: A dual-sided magnet in The Stand holds up to eight knives of varying sizes, and is better for knife blades and easier to clean in comparison to a traditional knife block. CONSCIOUSLY SOURCED WOOD: The Stand is made exclusively with FSC-certified, sustainably-harvested wood.
Perfect mom’s knife setup with this classic trio from renowned kitchenware brand MATERIAL. The best-selling set includes three Japanese steel knives with a magnetized stand sourced from FSC-certified wood.
