Ham is undoubtedly one of the most representative foods of the Spanish cuisine, and that is why Arcos has decided to create this Riviera White Ham Carving Knife Set. This set it is thus a must-have for all the lovers of ham and meat. The items included in this set are the following: 

– 1 boning knife 13cm

– 1 ham knife with flexible and hollow edge blade 25cm

– 1 sharpening steel 23cm

With this set, you can prepare your ham using the the boning knife and then slice it with the long ham knife. Note that the blade of the ham knife is perfect for this type of cutting as the hollow edge create a thin layer of air between the blade and the sliced food thus allowing you to perform cleaner cuts.

Each knife is forged from a solid piece of steel that has been shaped into the blade shape. The advantage of fully forged knives is that they are robust and balanced. The complex forging process ensures you top-quality knives with an impeccable finish. That is why forged knives like these ones are so well-appreciated by professional cooks.

The blades of these knives are made of Arcos’ exclusive type of stainless steel: NITRUM® steel. What makes this type of steel different from the others is that it is enriched with nitrogen. This composition provides the blades with a hardness of 57 HRC on the Rockwell scale and offers them a remarkable cutting edge that can be easily sharpened with the sharpening rod included in this set.

Moreover, these knives have ergonomic handles that are made of polyoxymethylene (POM, a material widely used in the kitchen). This material benefits from a new specific antibacterial treatment called “Bactiproof Silver” which gives it a rate of efficiency of 99.99% against the proliferation of bacteria. This treatment consists of a silver-based product which is mixed in with the plastic of the handle before injection.

Thanks to this, no specific maintenance will be necessary since the treatment will last for the knives’ lifetime. This is why these knives meet the NSF standards of hygiene and quality. In addition, the 3 stainless steel rivets add strength and balance. Whether you are a professional or not, you will appreciate the comfort and balance that these knives offer.
