Samura Hannibal Steak Knife and Fork Set, 8 pcs

The Samura Hannibal steak knife and fork set lays the table for four people: four 130 mm steak knives and four 205 mm forks with matching white handles. It is made for steak dinners, and the knives also suit other meat and fish dishes.

Blade and steel

The steak knives have blades made from a single layer of AUS-8 stainless steel, hardened to 58–59 HRC. This hardness keeps the edges in good shape through regular use at the table. AUS-8 is a corrosion-resistant stainless steel, but you should still wash and dry the knives soon after the meal.

Each knife has a partially serrated edge: part of the edge is serrated and part of it is plain. The Hannibal series is fashioned for steaks, and SAMURA highlights this edge for its cutting performance. According to SAMURA, the smooth, elegant slopes give the set an original look.

Handle and balance

All eight pieces have white ABS plastic handles with a pearlescent look that SAMURA describes as pairing nicely with any china. Because the forks match the knives, each place setting looks consistent on the table. The whole set weighs 470 g net.

Care and sharpening

Rinse the knives and forks with hot water and wipe them dry before first use. Wash every piece by hand with non-abrasive materials and dry it after the meal; a dishwasher is not recommended, and the pieces should not be left in the sink for long. Use the knives on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, and leave meat with bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade. Store the knives in a brush block or knife holder where the blades do not touch metal items, use a honing rod between sharpenings and sharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.
