KitchenAid 14pc 2-Tone Block Knife Set Black: High Carbon Stainless Steel, Forged Cutlery, Hand Wash, Lifetime Warranty
Overview
The KitchenAid 14-piece 2-tone block knife set is a complete kitchen starter kit for everyday meal prep, combining forged high-carbon Japanese stainless steel blades with an attractive two-tone wood storage block. It gives home cooks a range of purpose-built blades — an 8" chef, 8" slicer, santoku, utility and paring knives, plus six 4.5" steak knives and serrated options — so you can slice, chop and serve without hunting for single tools. The block includes a built-in sharpener to maintain edges between professional services, while ergonomic handles with chrome endcaps improve control and comfort. This set is aimed at households wanting professional-style performance and countertop presentation without investing in separate specialty knives.
