Pallares Kitchen Knife - Carbon Steel

Love it -- real carbon steel, sharp and beautiful design

These carbon steel knives are our new favorite kitchen tools! Got them in both sizes--I love the shape of the blade for chopping--and I love the feel of the handle, too. A great deal!

I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A HUGE FAN OF CARBON STEEL KITCHEN/COOKING/PARING KNIVES. THIS ONE IS A NO NONSENSE SUCH KNIFE. I AM AWARE OF THE SPECIAL NEEDS OF CARBON STEEL KNIVES BUT I FIND IT GOOD THAT SUCH WARNNGS ARE PUBLISHED WITH THE KNIFE DESCRIPTION.

ALSO GREAT SERVICE (SHIPPING/DELIVERY)

I bought 2 of these knives for paring/utility use. They arrived sharp, and I keep them sharp with a diamond steel. Treat carbon steel right and it will reward you with an edge like no other steel. Wash and dry thoroughly after each use and rub a little knife oil on the blade before storing. The steel will develop a rust-resistant patina and the knife will become an heirloom.

Finding a high quality, long-lasting kitchen knife has become harder and harder. This single knife replaces 2 of my low quality kitchen knives. I was pleased to discover the history of these knife makers and support their traditional industry. If you're a gardener or enjoy fishing, pallaressolsona.com also has agricultural tools. As our society abandons traditional skills and artistry, these handcrafted objects will become more scarce. What a joy to use a practical object of beauty for everyday tasks.
