Knife Notes

Know-how from our Sialkot workshop

Did you know?

Stainless steel started life on the dinner table

Stainless steel's first commercial job was cutlery. When Harry Brearley developed his rust-resisting chromium steel in Sheffield in 1913, local cutlers were among the first to put it to use, in table knives that until then stained as soon as they met vinegar or fruit juice. The 420 grade used for these six 11.5 cm blades belongs to the same family of hardenable stainless steels, and it remains a mainstay of table knives everywhere, Pakistan cutlery included.

Questions & answers

Table set questions we hear most often

How much does this knife set cost in Pakistan?

US$29.75 per piece (PKR 8,830 for buyers in Pakistan). From 50 pieces the price drops to US$20.83 per piece. For a larger order, send us the quantity on WhatsApp or by email and we will quote a lower rate.

Can the teak handles go in the dishwasher?

Better not. Long hot cycles and strong detergent dry out wood and can open the join at the bolster over time. Wash the knives by hand in warm soapy water, dry them straight away and rub a little food-safe oil into the teak now and then. The blades would cope; it is the handles that make hand washing worthwhile.

Made in Sialkot

From steel sheet to teak handle in Sialkot

Sialkot, in Punjab, has been a metalworking town for centuries, and today its workshops ship cutlery, surgical instruments and sports goods around the world. A table knife of this kind usually begins as a blank cut from 420 stainless steel, which is hardened, ground to an edge and polished before the inox bolster is fitted.

The teak is then shaped to the 12 cm handle, sanded and finished so the grain stays visible. Because teak figure varies from log to log, each Pakistan knife with a wood handle in the set carries its own pattern, and no two sets look quite alike. The sharpening steel and the wooden case complete the presentation.
