Beautifully Practical

Originally commissioned by one of the country’s finest musicians, this encapsulates everything we love about a set of knives: made with passion and attention to detail, each blade has been carefully selected to ensure there’s almost no functional overlap.

The Stout Yeoman is a fantastic little petty knife, nestling comfortably in the hand for off-board work, or where a shorter blade gives you greater accuracy and control. A step up from this and we have our Good Chopper which, unsurprisingly, is perfectly suited for when you need to chop – be that root veg, herbs, onions or garlic. Topping off the main-stream kitchen knives is the cracking Gyuto – with a gentle, smooth rock over its 7″ it is probably our preferred all-round chef’s knife, for when you want to rock or slice your way through everything from succulent cuts of beef to piles of carrots up the wazoo.

The serrated version of the Extreme Slicer will not only whip through all sorts of bread – from the fluffiest of fluffy loaves to the crustiest of sourdoughs – it will also find a role helping you neatly present larger cuts of meat, particularly slow-cooked (or BBQed) briskets and whole legs of Mutton – should you be able to find it…

For more day-to-day carving there’s the 21cm OG Carver and a fork with gently curving tines – the prongs are for after you’ve carved; when you’re doing the deed itself, the fork is designed to hold the joint in place with downward pressure so all the lovely juices don’t run off your board and all over your shoes. They belong in your stomach, after all.

And for maintenance there’s the honing steel. Made to match our knives, it’s to blades as coolant, lubrication and fuel is to an engine – light and frequent use will keep the sharpeners at bay for months if not years, and when the time does come for the edges to be attended to, then just send everything back to us and we’ll give the handles, blades and edges a once-over for you gratis.
