3-Piece Knife Set - Pin Series (X02O)

Reach for this set when you want a proper kitchen kit without the filler. Three knives cover most of what actually happens on a weeknight cutting board - from breaking down a whole chicken to shaving radish paper-thin for a salad. No steak knife you'll use twice a year. No bread knife buried at the back of the drawer.

What's in the Set

• 8" Chef Knife: Your daily driver. Rock-chop a pile of onions for a ragu, butterfly a chicken thigh, or work through a whole butternut without the blade tipping forward on you.
• 7" Santoku: The push-cut specialist. Flat profile shines when you're slicing zucchini into even coins, dicing a capsicum, or shaving radish paper-thin - any job where a rocking chef knife overcuts.
• 5" Utility Knife: The in-between blade. Halve cherry tomatoes, trim silverskin off a pork fillet, or slice a small roma without reaching for the chef knife.

One Steel, All Three Blades

Every knife in the set shares the same 10Cr15CoMoV high-carbon stainless core, wrapped in three layers of cladding and vacuum heat-treated to 60-62 HRC. That's a meaningful step up from the German steels in most beginner sets - the edge takes a finer polish and holds it through a full prep session without needing a honing rod halfway through dinner. Three-layer composite construction keeps each blade rigid on dense produce without making it brittle.

Olive Wood Handles, Full-Tang Build

All three handles are natural olive wood, riveted to full-tang steel cores. Olive wood is dense and naturally oily, so it won't swell or split after years of kitchen use. The same build quality goes into every knife in the set, from the 8-inch chef to the 5-inch utility.
