With perfect balance, this fully forged line performs with precision and ease. The Classic 7-Piece Knife Block Set offers some of our best-selling knives every home cook or professional chef needs. Each blade is forged from a single block of high carbon stainless steel and tempered to 58 degrees HRC.

The full tang triple-riveted synthetic polypropylene handles resist fading, discoloration, heat, and impact.
