Pallarès Kitchen Knife in Carbon Steel with Boxwood Handle

Since I was a little girl I remember seeing Pallarès knives at home. My father used the knives in the garden and I remember my grandfather always carried one in his pocket. When I started helping my mother in the kitchen, I discovered that she also used Pallarès knives for almost everything.

These knivesare handmade with iron (carbon steel) and boxwood, and are still used and lovingly cared for today. As they are made of carbon steel, they are more resistant and stay sharper for longer than stainless steel, but it is very important to dry them after use and keep them in a dry environment. Nnever put them in the dishwasher. We can also spread a drop of oil on the blade if we are not going to use them for a while to prevent rust stains from appearing. However, it is normal that with time and use they darken a little, a patina forms naturally, which is part of the charm of these knives.

The Pallarès knives are light, balanced and have a very pleasant handle, so they quickly become one of the most used knives in any kitchen. They are appreciated around the world as a symbol of a handmade knife with its own character. They can be found in specialised shops in Europe as well as in the United States and New Zealand and have been featured in specialised publications for their character and special design.
