LamsonSharp 6-Piece Forged Knife Set with Block

The LamsonSharp Rosewood Forged Cutlery Series features a one-piece, forged, full tang blade made of hardened and tempered high-carbon stainless steel from Soligen, Germany. The Oiled Rosewood hadles are naturally hard and heavy, making them extremely durable, they are triple riveted with brass rivets for perfect balance and weight. The taper-ground blades are polished, hand-edged and honed. All forged knives from LamsonSharp are shipped in their own KnifeSafe, to protect the knives and the people who use them. This knife will be Sharp for Life, with the unique free factory knife sharpening program. All LamsonSharp products are proudly made in the USA and carry a lifetime warranty.

If you've still got your knives banging around in the kitchen drawers, it may be time to buy a block set. Storing knives in an oak block like the one included in this LamsonSharp set is convenient, plus it protects knife blades and keeps them from damaging other knives. This block set contains all the essentials: a 3-1/2-inch parer for small tasks, an 8-inch chef's knife for bigger jobs, an 8-inch carver for slicing, and a 6-inch boning knife to cut the leftovers away from the carcass.

After the feast is finished, use the 10-inch butcher's steel to re-hone each blade: simply draw the knife blade lightly along the steel at a 20-degree angle. All the knives in this set are hand-forged high-carbon stainless steel (which means they are very sturdy) and honed by hand for a razor-sharp edge. Each blade has a full tang and is secured to its resin-infused wood handle by three brass rivets. This elegant, durable set of knives also makes a great gift for any gourmet. --Jill Marquis
