The maple set knives is not your typical knife set. The set however does bring kitchen knives into a new perspective. Although they work well, they are not the heaviest of hitters in the kitchen and because of the wood structure, extra care must be taken. For example you cannot use it in the dishwasher or soak it for extended periods in the water. Also they must be oiled every 3 to 4 months and more frequently if you use it often. The set consist of one 8" chef's knife and one 8" butchers knife. The grain in each knife is unique and no two knives will ever be alike. They are stained separately as well so there can be minor variations in colour. Made from Canadian maple and German stainless steel.
