The rounded long-lasting olive wood handle, with its beautiful grains and artisanal manufacturing, makes each knife a unique piece, as elegant as it is practical and precise in cutting. Ideal for the kitchen and also for the table, you choose which Pallarès you want: with a carbon steel blade or a stainless steel blade. Or, why not, both!
Pallarès kitchen knives
Since I was little I remember seeing Pallarès pocket knives at home. My father used knives in the garden and I remember that 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. Some beautiful wooden knives that he still uses and cares for with great care today.
These knives are handcrafted with iron (carbon steel) and olive wood. They come with a carbon steel blade and a stainless steel blade.
The carbon steel blade is stronger and stays sharper longer than stainless steel knives, but it is very important to dry them after use and keep them in a dry environment. Never put them in the dishwasher. We can also spread a drop of oil on the blade if we are going to be without using them for a while to prevent rust stains from appearing. In any case, it is normal that with time and use they darken a little, a patina forms naturally that is part of the charm of these knives.
If you prefer them with a stainless steel blade, they have exactly the same appearance and are perfect kitchen knives for the most practical, since they do not rust or require maintenance, except for always washing them by hand to take care of the wood of the handle.
Pallarès knives are light, balanced and have a very pleasant handle, which is why they quickly become one of the most used knives in any kitchen. They are appreciated around the world as a symbol of a knife with its own character made by hand. They can be found in specialized stores in Europe, the United States or New Zealand and have appeared in specialized publications for their character and special design.
Which Pallarès knife to choose
The two models, in carbon steel and stainless steel, are light and balanced and in both the handle is exactly the same, with its traditional rounded design that makes them very pleasant to handle. The difference between them is the material of the blade, but both have the same quality, so it is advisable that you choose the knife that best suits your needs:
- Pallarès knife with carbon steel blade. The blade is very resistant, the edge stays sharp longer, it is easier to sharpen and offers a very precise cut. On the other hand, it requires minimal maintenance and care to prevent oxidation. They should always be washed by hand (never in a dishwasher), dried immediately and if they are not used frequently it is advisable to apply a little oil to the blade. Furthermore, with use and the passage of time the blade darkens.
- Pallarès knife with stainless steel blade. They are the most common knives in the domestic environment, since the blade is more resistant to oxidation and does not need the same care as the previous one. Since they have a wooden handle, they should not be washed in the dishwasher. They are resistant and durable, can be left to air dry without problem and do not require the application of oil before storing them.

NOTE: If you notice stains or a change in color on the knife blades, it is natural oil from the same manufacturing process. All you have to do is wipe a piece of kitchen paper with a little sunflower or olive oil on the blade of the knife; You will see how it spreads and the stains disappear.
