The knives in this set come from the CHEF series, known for featuring blade shapes popular in Europe — where the handle and spine of the blade form a straight line, and the blade itself tapers to a pointed tip. To ensure durability, all knives are made from MAC Steel (AUS8) with a Rockwell hardness of 59, which also makes them extremely sharp. The handles are crafted from PAKKA wood, a blend of natural wood and resin that provides exceptional resistance to moisture absorption.

The knives have been carefully selected to create a practical set for everyday use. The set comes in an elegant black box, making it a refined and functional gift option. We highly recommend MAC kitchen knives, especially in sets — as purchasing them together offers a lower price per knife compared to buying them individually.
