DESCRIPTION
Reach for this when you're setting up a kitchen properly, or replacing a mismatched block set built up one budget knife at a time. Five pieces cover everything from breaking down a whole chicken to slicing sourdough, stored together in a solid wood holder that looks like it belongs on the bench rather than shoved in a drawer. One gift box, no filler pieces.
What's in the Set
- 8" Chef Knife: Your daily workhorse. Rock-chop a pile of onions for a Sunday ragu, butterfly a chicken thigh, or work through a 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, shaving radish paper-thin for a salad, or dicing a capsicum with speed.
- 5" Utility Knife: The in-between blade. Trim silverskin off a pork fillet, halve a peach for a dessert, or slice a small roma without reaching for the chef knife.
- Kitchen Scissors: The set's unsung tool. Break down a spatchcock chicken, snip herbs directly into a pan, or cut through pizza without dragging a blade across your board.
- Solid Wood Holder: Keeps the set together and off the bench clutter. Built to match the sycamore handle aesthetic rather than looking like an afterthought.
67-Layer Damascus, One Shared Core
Every blade in the set shares the same structure. A 10Cr15CoMoV high-carbon stainless core is wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus, then vacuum heat-treated to 60-62 HRC. That hardness is where you earn the set's price: each edge takes a keen polish and holds it through a long session of chopping, so you're not reaching for a honing rod halfway through a prep. The flowing Damascus pattern across all three knives also resists chipping on denser produce like raw beetroot or thick-skinned pumpkin.
Figured Sycamore, Full-Tang Build
The handles are figured sycamore, a dense hardwood with a visible rippled grain that looks different on every piece. It sits comfortably in the hand whether you're gripping the chef knife for a power cut or choking up on the utility for finer work. One solid piece of steel runs from the tip of each blade through to the butt of the handle, so the weight balances right on your pinch grip.

WHY THE SET
One Set Beats Five Separate Buys
Building a kitchen one knife at a time leaves you with mismatched steel, handles, and edges. The B30 set arrives complete and consistent: the 8-inch chef, 7-inch santoku, and 5-inch utility share identical Damascus construction, the same 60±2 HRC hardness, and the same 15-degree edge, so every knife sharpens and feels the same in the hand. The wooden block stores them safely and the shears handle the jobs a knife should not. It ships in a gift box, ready to use or give.
IN THE SET
Five Pieces, Each With a Job
The 8-inch chef knife is the workhorse for slicing, dicing, and the bulk of daily prep. The 7-inch santoku handles vegetables, fish, and clean push cuts with its flatter profile. The 5-inch utility knife steps in for smaller produce, trimming, and detail work too fine for the chef. Kitchen shears cover herbs, packaging, and poultry. The wooden knife holder keeps all three blades stored upright, edges protected and off the bench. The three knives are forged from 67-layer Damascus with a 10Cr15CoMoV core and figured sycamore handles.
WHO IT'S FOR
A Kitchen Gift or a Fresh Start
This is the set for a new kitchen, a first serious upgrade, or a wedding and housewarming gift that lasts. It arrives in a presentation gift box, so it gives well without extra wrapping. Anyone furnishing a kitchen from scratch gets the three knives that cover most prep, plus shears and a block, in one matched purchase. Hand wash only and keep it to everyday slicing and cutting, not chopping through bone or frozen food.
The difference
Why this set
Buy the Set
- Three matched Damascus knives, kitchen shears, and a storage block in one gift box. Consistent steel, hardness, and edge across every blade, ready to use or give.
Buy Singles
- Pick one knife for a specific job. Sensible if you already own a block and shears and only need to fill a gap, but you lose the matched look and the gift-ready packaging.
