X50CrMoV15 German Steel
  • X — Stainless Steel: High-grade durable German Steel.
  • 50 — Carbon Content: 0.5% carbon offers good hardness, which results in good edge retention. The blade stays sharper, longer.
  • Cr — Chromium: Ensures high rust resistance in the finish of the blades.
  • Mo — Molybdenum: Increases toughness and reduces the likelihood of chipping.
  • V — Vanadium: Improves grain structure and durability to reduce wear.
  • 15 — Chromium Content: 15% chromium increases the resistance to oxidation and corrosion and allows the classification of ‘stainless steel'.
Use & Care + -
  • Wash your knives before first use.
  • To keep knives sharp, hand-washing is recommended. All Kilne knives are dishwasher safe.
  • Use a wood or plastic cutting board. Cutting onto metal, glass or stone surfaces can dull or damage knives.
  • Cutting frozen foods can also damage your knives.
  • Store knives in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to keep them sharp and protected. Keeping knives loose in drawers can cause premature wear and tear.
  • Serrated knives need to be sharpened differently than your other knives (and less often). Invest in a ceramic sharpening rod (the Kilne Honing Steel is not designed for serrated knives) or take your bread/steak knives to a professional for sharpening.

Why Kilne?

Sharpness That Lasts

The chromium German steel blades feature a 13-degree angle edge designed to make fine cuts and stay sharp.

Fully Forged Construction

A single bar of steel is heated and hammered into shape, creating a durable, long-lasting blade.

Full Tang Blade

One piece of steel through the blade and into the handle, providing balance and eliminating weak spots.

Why the bread Knife?

Serrated and Solid

The serrated bread knife is perfect for baked goods and even cutting through watermelon, salami, cheese and more. The jagged edge goes through both soft and hard rinds with ease.

3 essential knives

I purchased the 3 essential knives a few weeks ago, and so far I'm very happy. I love how they feel it my hand. They're very solid. Also, they look great in my kitchen.
