Description

Sometimes we make special kitchen knives. Limited edition. Most are forged using a lamination process with a steel core, some are 100% steel knives. The steel we are forging with is tool steel (SIS 2140).

Our target is to make the kitchen knife light, strong, flexible, easy to treat, functional and be for joy during a long time just as our other tools in our assortment.

The laminated blades are forged with iron on the sides which supports the hard inner steel core. Tough and hard in a perfect teamwork. This makes it possible to forge the blade very thin. The edge of the blade can be honed incredibly sharp and it stays sharp for a long time.

The blades are light and versatile. They are forged with a pretty thin, but stable, spine. The blade has then been ground very thin to tip and edge, especially behind the edge, around 0,05 mm, before the secondary edge. The length and design vary between the knives.

They are heat treated in well monitored ovens many times to around 62-63 HRC, which gives it a tough and durable edge.

The handles are made out of Swedish ash. They are fire treated and surface treated. Some handles are also dyed with different colors.

Since the knives are unique, there is only one knife per article (A, B, C, …). Therefore, the knife you order is exactly the one in the picture.

Keep an eye open on this site. New kitchen knives might pop up here in the future and they get sold pretty quickly.

Price

The prices of the kitchen knives varies depending on blade length, size of the blade, handle, etc. The prices are individually set around 2500 – 6000 SEK.

Care instructions

The steel is not stainless. Keep the knife dry and clean after use.
Oil the handle and blade every now and then, with a drop of highly refined mineral oil.
Not diswasher safe.
Do not use for cutting bones and cartilage.
The steel will “mature” in its color, it’s natural since the steel is not stainless.
