Custom Kitchen Knives Set: Forged Stainless Steel with Wenge Handles
Regular price $220.00
In the heart of 18th-century Paris, where culinary artistry was revered, Chef Élodie Marchand became a legend not just for her dishes but for the tools she wielded. Born into a family of blacksmiths, Élodie grew up surrounded by the clang of steel and the scent of molten metal. But her true passion lay in the kitchen, where she dreamed of creating the perfect set of knives to elevate her craft.
Élodie’s breakthrough came when she forged her own set of custom kitchen knives. Each blade was crafted from stainless steel, coated with a durable black powder finish for both style and resilience. The handles, made from wenge wood and accented with shimmering epoxy resin, were designed for balance and comfort, allowing her to work for hours without fatigue.
With these knives, Élodie created dishes that captivated Parisian high society. Her knives became as famous as her recipes, and soon, every aspiring chef sought a set of their own. Today, we honor Élodie’s legacy with this 5-piece custom kitchen knives set, designed for modern chefs who demand precision, durability, and beauty in their tools.
