STEELPORT Knife Set 3-Piece Carbon Steel - ES31000

STEELPORT ES31000 Knife Set 3-Piece Carbon Steel

Key Features

• STEELPORT’s 3-Piece Essential Gift Set features the three most used knives in the average home kitchen:
  • STEELPORT 4” Paring Knife for in-hand or small finer work on the cutting board. Our smallest knife, designed for a high level of maneuverability and application.
  • STEELPORT 8” Chef Knife a versatile chef knife for jobs large and small in any kitchen, named “The Best Made-in-USA Kitchen Knife” by Gear Patrol
  • STEELPORT 10” Bread Knife, a high performance bread knife with custom wavy serration ideal for hard crusted and soft loaves, BBQ brisket, and more, recently praised by The New York Times for exceptional performance.
• Blade Material/Heat Treat
  STEELPORT knives have solid one-piece traditional drop forged construction from blade tip to end cap with an integral bolster for a well-balanced and long-lasting knife. Through STEELPORT’s proprietary differential heat treatment, American 52100 Carbon Steel achieves an unmatched 65HRC hardness at the blade for exceptional long-lasting sharpness, while maintaining a softer 30HRC spine for lifelong durability. The bolster and spine are hand-polished smooth for a supremely comfortable pinch grip hold.
• Handle
  STEELPORT’s signature contoured handle makes cutting an enjoyable experience and not a chore. For all STEELPORT handles, we use Oregon Big Leaf Maple Burl, a locally sourced, naturally unique burl wood, stabilized with resin to meet tough kitchen requirements and won’t shrink or swell. Learn more about our unique handles on our blog.
• Care & Use
  Carbon Steel is for those who take pride in keeping their tools at peak performance through basic maintenance. Carbon Steel knives like STEELPORT are not stain or rust resistant. Day to day, it is as simple as remembering to hand wash and dry after each use.
