Pre-Order – Limited Batch

The essential tools of a working kitchen.
The Foundation Three-Piece Set includes a 6" Santoku, a 3.5" Paring Knife, and an 8" Chef Knife — three core blades forged to handle the full range of daily prep, from detailed work to heavy chopping.
Each knife is forged from tip to heel using our signature integral handle construction. Blade and handle are shaped as one continuous piece of steel, creating exceptional strength, balance, and long-term durability.
Forged by Hand
Each blade in this set is:
• Forged from high-carbon steel
• Built using integral one-piece construction
• Hand-shaped, ground, and finished in our North Carolina studio
• Balanced for precision and control
• Produced in small batches
Forging blade and handle as a single piece eliminates structural weak points and creates a knife that feels unified in the hand.
Subtle variations in finish reflect the hand-forged nature of each blade.
A True Foundation
• The 8" Chef Knife anchors the set — built for slicing, chopping, and heavy prep.
• The 6" Santoku provides versatility and control for vegetables and proteins.
• The 3.5" Paring Knife handles fine detail and precision work.
Together, they form a complete and capable foundation for both professional kitchens and serious home cooks.
Built to Endure
High-carbon steel develops character with use and proper care. These knives are designed to be maintained, sharpened, and relied upon for years — not replaced.
This is not a starter set.
It is a working set, forged for longevity and performance.
