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.

Leo ★★★★★

I love how the petite chef's knife handles — it’s light enough to mince garlic without fatigue but still feels solid thanks to the Damascus steel. The smaller size makes it perfect for quick, precise cuts on smaller veggies.

Zoe ★★★★★

The 6-inch chef knife made quick work of dicing an onion and a bell pepper for dinner, and it felt sturdy without being too heavy. For the price, having two nimble Damascus steel blades ready to go is a solid starter set.

Ruby ★★★★★

I was surprised by how balanced the 6-inch chef’s knife feels in hand—makes quick work of dicing onions without any wobble. The smaller blade size is perfect for my kitchen counter, and the Damascus pattern looks even better up close.
