Our take on the MKC Culinary Set - Black

The MKC Culinary Set is a three-knife kitchen collection: The Big Horn Chef, The Smith River Santoku and The Little Bighorn Petty. The blades are MagnaCut stainless steel with a black PVD coating, and the G-10 handles are contoured for grip. It was designed with knifemaker Mareko Maumasi, so it targets cooks who want a matched, hard-use set rather than one all-purpose knife. Against typical kitchen sets, the MagnaCut steel and coated blades are the standout; the trade-off is a small set with no bread knife or utility slot, and coated blades hide scratches less well than bare steel.
