An ideal knife starter set, this dynamic duo comprises two of our most popular knives in smaller, more nimble sizes. There’s a petite, 6-inch chef’s knife ideal for everyday slicing, dicing and mincing, plus a versatile serrated sandwich knife perfect for cutting crusty bread, sandwiches, tomatoes and bagels. (The latter has a round, broad, blade for spreading, too; it’s the knife equivalent of the everything bagel!) Both knives are forged from 67 layers of Japanese Damascus steel for a harder blade–a 60 Rockwell rating–and a sharper edge that stays sharp longer, for effortless slicing. What's Included: 6-inch chef’s knife is a smaller, more agile chef’s knife for everyday prep. 5-inch sandwich knife has scalloped serrations designed to cut through the crispy, soft crust of breads and bagels, and effortlessly through delicate-skinned fruits and vegetables. Knives utilize the 3-step Honbazuke sharpening method–plus an advanced heat treatment to enhance hardness and corrosion resistance–resulting in a super-sharp, 12-degree edge. Arched design and amazing ergonomic grip features a unique green Pakkawood handle, infused with resin to increase resistance to moisture, cracking and splintering.

I was worried the 6-inch chef’s knife would feel too small, but it’s incredibly nimble for chopping herbs and garlic. The damascus pattern on the blade looks beautiful and gives it a sturdy, balanced feel.

The smaller size of these knives makes them surprisingly easy to control for precise work like mincing garlic. Even the paring knife feels substantial in hand, not flimsy. A great step up from my old generic set.

Victoria A. ★★★★★

The 6-inch chef's knife feels incredibly well-balanced in my hand for smaller tasks like mincing garlic or slicing a single tomato. Just the right size for someone who doesn't need a full 8-inch blade for everyday prep.

The 6-inch chef's knife is perfect for quick onion dices without feeling clumsy. Both blades came razor sharp out of the box and the damascus pattern looks even better in person. I've already used them for a week straight with no issues.
