Knives by STEELPORT Knife Co are built by hand in Portland, Oregon. Founded by bladesmith Eytan Zias, they are a small team of artisans dedicated to creating some the finest kitchen knives available. Their work combines premium materials, traditional forging techniques, and American heirloom craftsmanship. All materials are ethically sourced in the USA.
This STEELPORT 4 piece steak knife set is perfect for those that want to bring the incredible quality of STEELPORT's kitchen knives to the dining table for their guests to enjoy. Made from the same outstanding materials and craftsmanship, this set is sure to be passed down in the family for generations to come!
The 4-1/2 inch blade is drop forged from a single billet of 52100 carbon steel. A cryogenic differential heat treatment brings the resilient steel to 65 Hrc. 52100 is considered by many knifemakers and knife users to be among the best steels (if not the best!) used in modern knifemaking. It combines exceptional edge holding with durability and ease of sharpening. A temper line travels across the blade, showing the transition between the supportive spine and the ultra-hard (Hrc 65!) cutting edge. The blade features a smooth, dark patina, offering limited rust resistance. Like other carbon steel knives, we recommend camellia oil to avoid rust and oxidation. The blade culminates in an integral bolster for superior strength and balance.
The faceted handle is Oregon bigleaf maple burl (Acer macrophyllum). It is set between the integral bolster and integral end cap. By using stabilized wood, STEELPORT ensures this knife will hold up well to the demands of either a home or commercial kitchen. The integral bolster provides a smooth transition to the rounded spine for an effortless pinch grip. The handle is comfortable in a wide range of grips.
The steak knife set is accompanied by a walnut wood presentation/storage box. STEELPORTS's logo is engraved on the lid. Slot cutouts for the handles cradle the knives safely. Magnets imbedded in the lid seal it shut.
Made by artisans in the USA.
