Saba 2 Piece Knife Set with Steel

A perfect starter kit for any household containing the following 3 items

Okimoto Saba Knife Series

One of our fan favourites, the Saba has real presence and the sort of reassuring weight that tells you it means business, not a delicate ornament that's terrified of a butternut pumpkin. 

The rugged hammered finish adds to the appeal. It looks like a knife that's earned its place in the kitchen, with just enough attitude to stand out without trying too hard.

Best of all, it's as practical as it is handsome. Crafted from stainless molybdenum vanadium steel with a 50:50 V bevel, the Okimoto Saba knife is refreshingly low maintenance. It sharpens easily, holds its edge impressively well for it's price and shrugs off the demands of everyday cooking. It's the sort of knife you'll reach for every night, not because you have to, but because all of your old kit suddenly feels second best.

Care Instructions

Knife care for stainless steel knives

  • Never put in the dishwasher.
  • Dry thoroughly after handwashing and do not store unless fully dry.
  • Do not cut through bones, frozen foods or extremely dense items.
  • Always cut with a smooth action and never twist the blade, sideways pressure will damage the blade.
  • Use Japanese waterstones to sharpen your knife.
