Riaan Steenberg Japanese knifes made in China and Over priced.
A forged two-tine carving fork from the Pin series. Full-tang 10Cr15CoMoV construction with a natural olive wood handle, it locks a roast or bird in place so your carving knife can run clean, even slices. 314mm overall with 152mm tines for real reach into a leg of lamb or a Christmas turkey.
Reach for this when you're plating a roast chicken and the carving knife has already done its job. A carving fork holds the bird, the loin, or the leg steady while you work through it cleanly - without the meat shifting, the joint twisting, or your free hand getting too close to the blade. Five inches is the right length: enough reach to anchor a whole roast, short enough to stay in control on the plate.
The two tines grip the meat where you plant them and don't move. That stability is what lets you carve thin, even slices across a Sunday roast or keep a rolled loin from rolling while you work down its length. The tines are narrow enough not to tear the flesh as they go in, and the tip is sharp enough to pierce through the crust of a well-rested piece of meat without forcing it.
All our knives arrive in a beautiful, premium gift box that's ready to impress. (Whether it's for a very lucky cook, or just for you.)

PIN SERIES CARVING FORK
Carving is a two-hand job. The knife does the cutting; the fork does the holding. This forged two-tine fork sinks into the joint and keeps it dead still, so your slices stay even and your knuckles stay clear of the blade. Built to match a Pin series carving knife in steel and handle, it finishes the carving set rather than fighting it.

WHY IT EARNS BENCH SPACE
The tines are forged from 10Cr15CoMoV and hardened to 60±2 HRC, so they stay straight under load instead of splaying when you lever a heavy roast. The tang runs the full length of the olive wood handle and is locked with stainless steel rivets. No flex at the join, no wobble in the hand. At 190g it has enough mass to feel planted without tiring your wrist over a long carve.
Specification
HOW TO USE IT
Drive the two tines into the densest part of the roast, away from where you are cutting. Keep firm downward pressure so the joint cannot rock, then carve with your other hand in long, smooth strokes. The 152mm tines reach deep into a turkey breast or a leg of lamb; the 30mm fork width spreads the hold so the meat does not tear. It also doubles as a serving fork for lifting and plating once the carving is done.
CARE
Hand wash only, then dry straight away. Do not put it in the dishwasher. The olive wood handle is natural timber, so wipe on a little food-safe mineral oil now and then to keep it from drying out and to bring back the grain. Stored dry and oiled, it will outlast most of your kitchen.
FAQs
