Farmhouse Pottery Artisan Forged Cheese Knives

No, these knives are not dishwasher safe. Because they feature sustainably sourced wooden handles, hand washing with mild soap and drying immediately is required to preserve the integrity of the wood and the finish of the blades.

The set includes four specialized tools: a cleaver for hard, aged cheeses; a standard knife for semi-firm varieties; a spreader for soft cheeses like brie or goat cheese; and a petite spreader for dips or smaller portions.

To keep the FSC-certified wood in good condition, we recommend occasionally applying a food-safe mineral oil or wood conditioner. This prevents the wood from drying out and maintains its natural luster over time.

The hammered finish is primarily an aesthetic choice that adds texture and character to the pieces. While the stainless steel blades are sharp and durable enough for serving, they are designed specifically for cheese service rather than heavy-duty kitchen prep.

Yes, the handles are ergonomically shaped from FSC-certified mango or beech wood. The organic, rounded shape provides a secure and comfortable grip, ensuring they feel balanced and substantial in the hand while serving.
