This two piece set consists of the Messermeister Royale Elite 8" Stealth Chef's Knife (E/9686-8S) and Royale Elite 3.5" Paring Knife (E/9691-3.1/2). They are the two most widely used knives in the kitchen.
Features
The German 1.4116 stainless carbon alloy blade resists stains and corrosion, exhibits toughness and durability, holds its edge retention, and is easy to re-sharpen to a razor-like edge.
This knife line is one-piece, hot-drop hammer forged, which produces the strongest blade from heel to tip. The blades are heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 57-58.
The three-step, 15° Elite edge is hand stropped on a cloth wheel, creating the sharpest possible cutting surface on an edged tool.
The bolsterless heel simplifies all cutting, sharpening and honing tasks, making use of the entire blade from heel to tip.
Handcrafted in the historic cutlery capital of Solingen, Germany.
100% Messermeister quality

I am so excited to have found this company. Everything about their history and mission excites me. My husband and I actually visited Germany this year for our 25th anniversary. Year 25 is the silver anniversary so the gift of silver knives with a German heritage was perfect. My husband can be quite picky as a receiver of gifts and he was over the moon with this! We will be back!

I’m not sure how I cooked prior to owning my new knives!! They make slicing and dicing fun! I can’t wait to own them all!

The walmut wood is gorgeous and the knives are sharp--great addition & choice for me.
