We’ve made a lot of knives using an epoxide polymer for the handle, but these are definitely one of our favourite. The black and blue iridescent pigments fade in to each other, but not entirely evenly – allowing the underlying orange liner to poke through in places. Turning the handles upwards reveals our distinctive spine crenellations.

Each handle has been hand-shaped in our favourite contoured profile, and buffed within an inch of its life. They still retain a pleasing grip and feel immediately at home in the palm.

As ever – if you want to swap or change the colours used around, then just get in touch.

For the blades we have the eponymous Savernake Knife leading the charge, a lightweight larger nakiri with just a hint of rock towards the nose. The mainstay of the set, it’ll be the one you reach for 90% of the time. When you need to work in the hand, or on more detailed tasks, then the Stout Yeoman will come to the fore. With an 11cm blade it’s equally at home as a comfortable larger paring knife as it is a small utility.

For garnishes, herbs and fruit we have our perennial favourite, the Nimble Chopper. With enough knuckle clearance to allow you to work on the board effectively, it’s an excellent counterpoint to the larger nakiri.

And for when you need to take long slices, there’s the OG Carver with a 21cm blade. Perfect for carving everything from a roast chicken through to a rack of lamb, it’s also incredibly adept at scoring pork, slicing up a celeriac and (if kept in tip-top condition) slicing bread.
