Samura Damascus Knife Set, 3 pcs, Gift Box

The Samura Damascus knife set brings together three kitchen knives: a 90 mm paring knife, a 125 mm utility knife and a 200 mm chef's knife. Between them, they cover everyday prep, from trimming fruit and vegetables to slicing meat, portioning fish and cutting bread, cheese and sausage. The set comes in a gift box, so it works as a present as well as for your own kitchen.

Blade and steel

All three blades are made from 67 layers of Damascus steel and hardened to 60–61 HRC. A hard blade holds its edge for a long time, so you spend more time cutting and less time sharpening. In return, a hard edge asks for a little care: keep it away from bones, frozen food and glass boards.

Each knife has a convex edge, sharpened on both sides, with an original factory sharpening angle of 16–18°. When you resharpen on a whetstone, work one side until a burr forms, then the other.

Handle and balance

The ergonomic black G-10 handles are made of a durable, moisture-resistant material. A stainless steel bolster joins each blade to its handle, adding durability and giving you control while you cut. Together, the three knives weigh 430 g.

Care and sharpening

Rinse the knives with hot water before first use, then wash them by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe them dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and the knives should not be left in the sink for a long time. Cut on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, and leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade. Use a honing rod between sharpenings and sharpen on a whetstone at the original factory angle of 16–18°. Store the knives in a brush block or knife holder where the blades do not touch metal items.
