Carbon Steel Knives

This range of knives are made from high-carbon steel - just like the famous Thiers-Issard straight razors. Forged from a single piece of steel they are then ground, polished and sharpened by hand before being clad in the handle material of choice. The tables below refer to identical knives but the first has handles of resin-impregnated rosewood (red stamina)whilst the second has handles made from durable black nylon.

Please note that bread knives, serrated steak knives and tomato slicers are only available in stainless steel. Thiers-Issard consider these particular knives to be ‘tableware’ and so make them from stainless steel for the sake of appearance - they have a much brighter shine than carbon steel - and also the serrations would be virtually impossible for the customer to re-sharpen by hand if the blade were of the high-carbon steel type.

Cook’s knife - the jack-of-all-trades of most kitchens!

Seen here with Red Stamina handle, this classic French design lends itself to many cooking tasks - slicing, dicing and chopping - and is beautifully balanced for the hand.

Boning knife - traditionally used, as its name suggests, for removing the bone from joints etc. prior to roasting. Its narrow point is perfectly designed to gain purchase in the smallest nooks and crannies!

For cooked meats or cold joints the carving knife has no equal - the long, relatively shallow-depth blade is ideally suited to the task, meaning you carve with ease and precision.

Please see our Stainless Steel section for other knives and accessories not available in carbon steel such as tomato knives, bread knives, serving forks and of course sharpening steels.

All the knives in the above table feature handles made of black nylon - tremendously durable and suitable for prolonged daily use in professional situations. All blades are of course to the same standard as those with more decorative handles.

Something quite new from Thiers-Issard and a great addition to their knife range is this ‘Santoku’ knife, modelled on a traditional Japanese design. It has all the versatility of the Cook’s knife combined with the extra ‘clearing’ ability of a scalloped-edge knife (see inset left).

This is rapidly proving to be on of the most popular knives in the entire range - and it’s easy to see why!

Also available in Stainless Steel.
