Cutlery Line Is First Kitchenware Expansion, Tested And Approved By Partner Gordon Ramsay

LOS ANGELES , Feb. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- HexClad, the fastest-growing cookware brand in America, today announced the launch of their premium Japanese Damascus Steel cutlery line, marking the company's first expansion into kitchenware. In development for nearly three years, this cutlery collection was perfected to the edge by HexClad Co-Founders Daniel Winer and Cole Mecray alongside Company Partner and Michelin-Starred Chef, Gordon Ramsay .

Available in a 6-Piece Essential Set and 4-Piece Steak Set, each knife combines a striking aesthetic and a well-balanced weight, with the finest materials to ensure they not only deliver unrivaled sharpness, full-tang construction and cutting power but make a bold design statement…a signature of the award-winning brand. All blades are forged from 67 layers of Japanese Damascus Steel to provide incredible hardness (60 Rockwell Rating) and a sharper edge for effortless slicing. Their superior durability and balance are matched by the striking Damascus wave pattern on the blade and rare forest green pakkawood handles that standout in any kitchen.

"You can't rush perfection. We spent years developing these knives, rigorously refining and testing to ensure they made the cut. It was important for us to create a set that was powerful, versatile and handsome, so that consumers would experience the high-performance and high-design they've come to expect from HexClad," said Danny Winer .

"These knives slice so smoothly, it's unbelievable. Whether prepping vegetables, slicing bread, or deveining shrimp, it's a perfect cut every time. From the professional industry to at-home, I've always said good cooking starts with knives. And these are the best in the business," said Gordon Ramsay .

The 6-piece set (MSRP $499 ) includes everything needed to dominate food prep:

Made to the same exacting standards as HexClad's chef's knife, the 4-Piece Steak Knife Set (MSRP $299 ) is a must-have for those who appreciate a perfect cut. They'll sharpen anyone's at-home cooking, effortlessly slicing through any protein.
