Black Handle Specialist Knives Set/4
Handmade in the United Kingdom, David Mellor's black handle knives have a distinctive, modern look. Ice hardening the high carbon stainless steel makes the blades exceptionally sharp, akin to professional kitchen knives. The blades are then micro-serrated for effortless cutting and their acetal resin handles incorporate an internal back weight, giving an excellent balance and grip.Â
This knife set comes in a specially designed wooden box with a sliding lid. It's a perfect gift set and the handmade box can provide permanent safe storage for these exceptional knives.Â
The black handle knife collection was designed by Mellor's son, Corin Mellor.

CARE
While David Mellor knives are technically dishwasher safe, we recommend washing and thoroughly drying by hand after each use to promote longevity. Knives that are left to sit in food, water residue or dishwashers at the end of their cycle could develop pits and stains. If stubborn stains do appear, use a stainless steel cleaner.
