Blenheim Forge Original 5 Knife, Whetstone and Oak Block Set

An exclusive 5-piece carbon steel knife set from our special range with Blenheim Forge, plus a 5-pillar oak knife block and a sharpening stone.

---DETAILS---

Located in a small workshop under an archway in South London, Blenheim Forge is a jewel in Britain’s culinary landscape, beloved by chefs like Gordon Ramsey and Francis Mallmann. We collaborated on a collection of knives made with a core Japanese super blue carbon steel—known for its long-lasting durability and unparalleled sharpness—clad with rust-proof stainless steel until the edge of the blade for easier maintenance. It is notoriously difficult to forge super blue carbon steel, but Blenheim Forge has mastered it with their skill and attention to detail. Every knife has a comfortable, six-sided walnut handle that feels stable to hold and provides balance, attached with a beautiful copper ferrule. The wood is sustainably sourced from fallen trees in the M25 area by an enterprise that teaches joinery and furniture making to unemployed youth. This knife set, exclusive to us, includes:

• Petty Knife (11.5cm)
• Nakiri (15cm)
• Santoku (18cm)
• Gyuto (20.5cm)
• Slicing Knife (22cm)
• A 5-pillar Kai oak knife block with a stainless steel base (holds up to 10 knives)
• A Niwaki 1000/3000 whetstone 

---BENEFITS---

'Anytime chefs walk into one of our stores, they beeline for these knives. It has what they love about carbon steel—the extremely fine cuts, how easy it is to sharpen—but requires less fuss.'
