French Pearl Chef & Butcher Set

This one-of-a-kind set by the well-known California artist Don Carlos Andrade features an Alsace-inspired, 208mm French chef knife and matching 113mm utility / butcher's knife. In his recognizable style, complete with satin finished, high-performance stainless steel blades perfect for cooking indoors and out, and trademark 'dot' inlaid handles of white G10 with Don's triple rivet motif carvings, this pair of culinary tools represents the crème de la crème of daily-use blades for the home or professional kitchen. Hard, razor sharp edges sit beneath Don's incredible freehand convex bevel geometry, pronounced and robust for the toughest jobs, combined with full-distal blade spine tapers, and nearly invisible secondary bevels for finesse and cutting precision. Produced in small batches by Damasteel in northern Sweden, the chef blade's RWL-34 stainless alloy is renowned for its use in edged wares, Don hardening it in-house to 59-60 HRC, while the butcher blade is shaped from CTS-XHP powder
