Top of the range knives, designed by Corin Mellor and newly introduced after 3 years’ development. The sinuously curving handles are made in Indian rosewood, the traditional material favored by culinary experts. These are carefully hand finished and wonderful to use. Knife blades exploit the latest techniques in steel casting to arrive at the beautifully curved bolster. Blades are precision ground and glazes to give an especially bright finish.
