Introducing the Old Hickory 5-Piece Cutlery Set by Ontario, a must-have collection for any kitchen enthusiast who values traditional craftsmanship and superior cutting performance. Each knife in this set is forged from fully heat-treated and tempered 1095 carbon steel, promising exceptional durability and a keen, long-lasting edge. The knives are paired with attractive hardwood handles, elegantly secured with brass compression rivets, ensuring a comfortable and secure grip. After assembly, these knives undergo a meticulous sharpening process, guaranteeing a razor-sharp edge that meets all your culinary needs. The Old Hickory brand has withstood the test of time, earning its reputation as the premier choice in carbon steel kitchen cutlery. The set includes an array of essential knives: a 4-inch Paring Knife, a 7-inch Butcher Knife, an 8-inch Slicing Knife, a 6-inch Boning Knife, and a 3.25-inch Paring Knife. Preferred by professionals and home cooks alike, carbon steel knives are celebrated for their sharpness and edge retention. Over time, the blades will develop a unique dark patina, a natural and desirable characteristic of high-carbon steel. To maintain the longevity of your knives, always hand-wash and dry them promptly after use, as they are not dishwasher safe and prolonged exposure to water can lead to rusting. Experience the timeless quality and performance of the Ontario Old Hickory 5-Piece Cutlery Set, a perfect blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern functionality.
