Produced by Quintin and his apprentices, each knife reflects Middleton Made's commitment to quality craftsmanship, delivering a premium cutting experience that's built to serve for years to come.
Forged from AEB-L stainless steel, the 6-inch blade offers exceptional sharpness, excellent toughness, impressive edge retention, and outstanding corrosion resistance. Originally developed for razor blades, AEB-L is renowned for taking an incredibly fine edge, making it an outstanding choice for precision kitchen cutlery.
Inspired by the traditional Japanese Nakiri, the wide, straight-edged blade is specifically designed for clean, efficient vegetable preparation. From slicing carrots and chopping onions to shredding cabbage and dicing herbs, the Nakiri's profile produces smooth, precise cuts while minimizing food sticking to the blade.
The beautifully crafted Dymalux handle combines durability with timeless elegance. Made from dyed birch veneers that are compressed and resin-infused, Dymalux offers exceptional strength, moisture resistance, and dimensional stability while showcasing rich layers of natural wood grain. Ergonomically shaped and perfectly balanced, the handle provides lasting comfort and confident control throughout every meal.
