Six pieces of table length forged steak knives in olive wood, matte finish. Knives pictured are sold as a complete set.

Since 1910, the Eichenlaub brand has represented the finest quality of forged table cutlery from Solingen, Germany. In 1998, the Robert Herder Company (Windmühlenmesser) bought the brand and has been meticulously producing them in their factory.

From the forging to the final polishing procedures and finish work, there are 122 working steps that must be taken to produce each handworked piece. The tines of each fork are meticulously tapered, and the details in and riveting and polishing the handle are top notch.

Eichenlaub tableware is not dishwasher safe and should never soak; these knives are not guaranteed against mistreatment. Warm soap and water should be used for cleaning, and an appropriate oil may be used on wooden handles if they become dehydrated.

This is a stainless steel knife. It should be hand washed and towel dried. Dishwasher use will result in degraded edge and handle. Consistent long term exposure to moisture can lead to oxidation.

Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
