Sharpening

Finding twenty degrees by halving a right angle

Most table knives are honed at roughly 20 degrees per side, and you can find that angle without a protractor:

  1. Hold the blade straight out from the steel, at a right angle: that is 90 degrees.
  2. Tilt it halfway down towards the steel to reach about 45 degrees.
  3. Halve that again for roughly 22 degrees, close enough for a 420-steel table edge.
  4. Keep that tilt and sweep each 11.5 cm blade from heel to tip, four or five strokes per side, alternating.
  5. Wipe the blade, then the white copper bolster and blue handle, before the knife returns to its case.

This Pakistani cutlery keeps its edge longest when the angle stays the same from stroke to stroke.

Gift ideas

Presents for people who love blue

Six blue handles make a statement on any table, so this set suits people whose homes already lean that way:

  • Coastal and seaside homes decorated in blue and white.
  • A couple whose wedding colours were blue.
  • Collectors of blue-and-white pottery, who will enjoy the match.
  • A cook with a navy or teal kitchen, where natural wood would look plain.

The silvery white copper bolsters keep the look cool, and the matching steel keeps each Pakistan steel knife sharp long after the wrapping paper has gone.

What is white copper?

A silvery alloy of copper and nickel. It takes a bright polish, resists tarnish better than brass and gives these bolsters a soft silver tone next to the blue.

The story

Blue on the table, from Delft to dyed wood

Blue has a long history at the dining table. In the seventeenth century, potters in the Dutch city of Delft became famous for blue-and-white earthenware, and the colour scheme spread across Europe on plates, tiles and jugs. Blue and white has remained a classic tableware pairing ever since, from country kitchens to formal dining rooms.

Cutlery took longer to join in, because the traditional handle materials, wood, bone and horn, came in natural browns, blacks and creams. Dyes changed that, letting wood carry strong colour deep into the grain. This set uses that freedom: six 12 cm handles in bold blue, with white copper bolsters and 11.5 cm blades of 420 steel, made in Sialkot.
