German cutlery and knives are the industry standard. The CIA Masters Collection Hyde Park Cutlery meets that standard with german steel and a traditional design. It exceeds standards, with extras designed by master chefs.
For the Hyde Park Knives, chefs developed a new handle design to ensure optimal placement of the hand for the best and most secure grip. This "balance forward" design also ensures that your grip is most comfortable so your slicing and chopping jobs are easy and quickly. The handle and bolster (where the handle connects to the base of the knife blade) have a seamless fit so food does not get trapped at the joint. The streamlined bolster exposes the full tang for optimum performance and maximum sharpening. These enhancements found only on CIA Knives produces a great cutlery that performs well in any kind of kitchen.
The Culinary Institute Masters Collection Cutlery also includes convenient storage tray designed for the knife drawer that holds between 7 and 8 knives, depending on their size.
