Savernake DNA PC26 26cm Carving Knife – Anthracite & Orange With Traditional Handle

100% British – designed, sourced and made entirely here in the UK. Our blades are initially formed in Sheffield from Silver Fox 100 – a 95% recycled British Steel. Every blade is individually thinned, finished and sharpened by hand in our workshop near Marlborough.

Our handle material was developed in house, developed over the course of a year using British materials and expertise.

Marble Handles

Each batch of marble is hand-poured in to individual blank moulds using process that has taken a long time to perfect.

Traditional Handles

For a long time, knife makers would put a thin strip of leather between the wood and the steel of their blades, to allow the handle to remain fixed even as the wood expanded and contracted during the seasons. Our traditional handle design references this heritage.

Our knives are balanced and weighted for precision, with blended curves and graceful blade arcs. We have spent years perfecting our striking handle shape. The result is that our handles look and feel fabulous in the hand and beg to be picked up and used again and again. Our handle making process offers a huge range of colours across 4 distinctive patterns to please all tastes and match all kitchen styles. Every handle is unique, created entirely by hand and eye and due to the natural material the handle is made from; there will be slight differences in the handle finish.

Our steel is hardened to the optimal 60 HRC, allowing for an edge that starts sharp and stays sharp, with minimal maintenance. Hand-thinning the blades allows for an incredibly fine cutting edge, so requiring very little effort to effect clean and satisfying cuts. Our handle material is a proprietary blend of polymers and fillers, hardened to Shore Hardness of 90 (the same as a golf ball), creating a durable yet comfortable handle that enables hours of cutting without discomfort or fatigue.
