The pot was christened with a Stifado dish of beef, which I liked most of all: the browning of the meat went perfectly, with less flame compared to browning in an IKEA frying pan. In the rest of the cooking process I had no trouble with "baked-on" residue on the bottom. In short, a perfect report.

De kookpot gedoopt met een bereiding van Stifado met rundsvlees, wat mij het meest beviel dat het aanbranden van het vlees perfect verliep met minder vlam tov het aanbranden in een IKEA braadpan. In het verdere kookproces geen last gehad van "aanzetsel" op de bodem. Kortom perfect rapport.

Reasons why our Santoku might not suit you.

We’re honest - it’s a quality we pride ourselves on. With that in mind, here are a few things we think you should consider before sealing the deal with us.

Scraping herbs into a wok with the back of the knife

You enjoy cutting on glass/ceramic surfaces.

Our knives require a soft-cutting board, preferably wooden or plastic. If you enjoy slicing straight onto plates, we wouldn’t recommend using our product.

Splitting a pumpkin with the chef's knife

You're scared of sharp knives.

They’re scary sharp and glide through food with zero effort. This actually makes them safer to use, yet we understand that not everyone shares our obsession with sharpness.

You want dishwasher safe knives

Razor sharp and durable by function. Yet, they have one weakness… the dishwasher. If this is a deal breaker, we recommend purchasing a softer steel knife.
