A good set of kitchen knives is a godsend. Sharp, perfectly balanced knives let you cut with ease and precision, whether you’re chopping veg, preparing meat or slicing bread. And when it comes to top-quality, super-sharp kitchen knives, you can rely on a Lakeland Damascus Knife to hold a sharp edge and make short work of whatever it is you’re slicing, chopping or dicing. What are Damascus knives? Damascus, an ancient city found in Syria today, was famous throughout the world for the steel blades and swords the city produced, going back almost 3,000 years. Damascus blades were prized for their strength and ability to keep a razor-sharp edge, as well as the unique patterning on the surface of the steel produced from the manufacturing process used to forge them. You’re probably not looking to pick up an ancient Persian sword today, however, we can recommend Damascus blades when it comes to the kitchen.
