Handmade is what counts! Star chef Sarah Wiener and the tradition-rich cutlery manufacturer Pott have developed a knives series together that convinces with highest quality.

Each Sarah Wiener split knife is produced in 90 manual working steps. Molybdenum-vanadium-steel from Solingen and a nine-step smithy procedure make the blade especially hard and rust-resistant as well as smooth and persistent. By separate fore-sliding and fine-sliding, the surface of the blade becomes extremely smooth and the steel pores close. A natural rust-protection is created this way. The blades become additionally sharp through complex “hand-operated trigger” (sliding and polishing by the blade-master’s hand) and sharpness test for every knife.

The grip of the Sarah Wiener knives consists of the best plum wood and it is a hand charmer in form and material. The plum wood came from regional woods and is hand-ground and oiled. The wide-forged crop of the bread knife is a finger-protection and the exact set focus at the same time. That is how the knife allows an easy and un-stressful working.
