our new series of kitchen knives, the Kitchen Classics, will race through just about any task you can imagine. These blades are ice tempered and then precision flat ground for maximum cutting power. All models in the series come with a razor sharp edge that lasts and lasts, and some have serrated edges uniquely appropriate to the tasks they were designed to do. The handles are, in a word, terrific! Carefully designed to ensure a strong, secure, yet comfortable grip, they feature a stiff Zy-Ex core on the inside, with a softer, deeply checkered Kraton exterior for a the kind of non-slip grip that must be felt to be appreciated! The Kitchen Classics are available for purchase as single items or as a complete set. The set includes an attractive counter-top oak stand, and one of each [except for the Steak Knife, which comes in a group of 6] of the knives in the series.
