The Zhen 2-piece set pairs the two knives a kitchen reaches for first: an 8.5" chef knife for the bulk of the work and a 5.5" utility knife for the close, fiddly jobs. Both blades are 67-layer Damascus folded around a 10Cr15CoMoV core, hardened to 60±2 HRC and ground to 15° per side. Matched octagonal handles in olive wood and black buffalo horn. Gift-boxed, with a lifetime warranty.

Yes. Both blades are 67-layer Damascus folded around a 10Cr15CoMoV core, hardened to 60±2 HRC and ground to 15° per side. The handles are matched octagonal olive wood and black buffalo horn.
Yes. The set is presented in a gift box, which makes it suited to a housewarming, wedding or first-kitchen gift.

The two knives are matched: same steel, same heat treatment, same edge geometry and the same handle. They look and feel like a pair, which is harder to achieve buying singles, and the set is the simpler thing to gift.
They are made in Yangjiang, China, the country's traditional centre of knife-making.
